Naming ods pdf files

[laura6728]

Is there a way you can have an ods pdf file be named with the value of a variable.  For example, if have a field with a course number (ENGL.1301.87, ENGL.1301.88, ENGL.1301.89, etc.), can I make my file name be the corresponding record in the course number variable?  If so, how?  Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks!

Are you creating and output file for each record of a dataset? Or are you wanting to direct all of like records to the same document?

I don't understand if you want name PDF file at running ODS PDF FILE=.. , you can try CALL EXECUTE .

If you want rename PDF file after they are already created , then check function RENAME() .
