Thanks Richard, let's hope Martin gets the time to take a look at these two requests.
I do appreciate XFRX, it has made the offering of alternative output options to our users a key benefit. James E Harvey Corresponding Officer/M.I.S.

Probably the simplest way to do it is add your own code to the export options form class. You'll see this line in the init: this.text2.Value = this.ooptions.cOutputFile Of course, if you go this route you'll want to make sure you document what you do in case a new version of the library comes out. I've tried to be a little more OO in what I've started but it's still a WIP as the containership hierarchy is pretty complicated (at least it is to me). Matter of fact, what I've done so far for my own code defies simple explanation so I'm not going to put it here. It's just too damn ugly. BTW all the export magic seems to be handled by the export method of the xfCont class. Interestingly, this method accepts a single parameter for the name of the output. In the places where I can see it called, it typically look like this: This.Parent.oCnt.Export() (although sometimes it has multiple Parents (see prior comment about complicated containership hierarchy :)) So no parameter is being passed. Perhaps Martin's intention is to expose a way to pass that parameter. I hope this helps you get started. -- rk -----Original Message----- Subject: RE: XFRX default "output" file name Yes, I'm definitely interested. Please excuse me for asking too much, but what about changing the default path to a folder other than the working folder...
