How to set default value in SAS Custom Task for SAS Server Path

[djrisks]

Hi,

I'm using the SASServerPath to read in a file. By default I would like the value to be blank, or something that I can control. 

Currently when I use this: 

%let file = ${fileSelector.fullPath};

I am getting this value below in the GUI by default. However, I know if someone else uses the task, the value would be different. How can I control it please? I would like to be able to select a SAS dataset, or keep the value blank.

C:\Users\kharris\program.sas7bdat

This is the code I am using.

<Option name="fileSelector" inputType="sasserverpath" defaultFileName="pq1"
pathType="file" defaultExtension="sas7bdat">An example of a SAS Server Path control.
This example allows the user to select a SAS program file.</Option>

Many thanks,

Kriss Harris
