help, auto save .prg after run, in a specific location variable.

I have been looking through all the past topics about this. but I am having trouble getting them working. I tried copy and pasting a few of them. and saving them as a .bas file and running the script. but i cant get one to work for me.

i currently already have a script that auto creates a folder from an operator input and saves the cmm report in that folder.

so ideally i want to follow that same train of thought and save a .prg & .cad in that same folder already created.

please advice.

Thought that I had it here, but no such luck.

newname = "Q:\Quality\In Process Inspection Plans\" & PartNo.StringValue & "\CMM REPORTS\" & ObjFolder & "\" & PCDPartProgram.PartName & " - " & SerialNo & ".PRG"

Did you read my post? You can't end a string with \", it must be \\" (Or was it the forum that removed the doubles?)

So would it need to be like this?

newname = "Q:\Quality\In Process Inspection Plans\" & PartNo.StringValue & "\CMM REPORTS\" & ObjFolder & "\\" & PCDPartProgram.PartName & " - " & SerialNo & ".PRG"

I still get the same error message...

Same with this

newname = "Q:\\Quality\\In Process Inspection Plans\\" & PartNo.StringValue & "\\CMM REPORTS\\" & ObjFolder & "\\" & PCDPartProgram.PartName & " - " & SerialNo & ".PRG"
