Permissions on a SCO Unix exported file

[Mike Schwartz]

SCO Open Server 5.0.7 and fP 5.0.05

 

          What is the best way to change permissions on an exported
spreadsheet?  I am trying to put the output spreadsheet into the
subdirectory of the user who is running the process:

 

144  -------   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -

         If:

       Then: fn="/u/" {@ID {"/HDrun.txt" {""     '"Run line" file name

145  -------   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -

         If: 'Write out a "run line" spreadsheet...

       Then: export ascii RHD = (fn)   r=\n  f=\t

146  -------   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -   -

         If:

       Then: system "chmod a+rw" <fn {""

 

     filePro initially creates a 0 byte file, but then, even with this chmod
system command, I still get this error:

 

*** A System Error Has Occurred ***

 

On File: /u/schwm/HDrun.txt

Output Processing

Line Number: 145

export ascii RHD = (fn)   r=\n  f=\t

^

filePro Error Number: -1

 

     What is the best way to do this?  Should I use another system command
to create the output file first, then do a chmod on it? Should I do a
pushenv umask command?

 

     I'm going to have to write several of these exports, so I would like to
do the simplest coding possible.

 

Thanks!
