Exclude files

Post by arrowmed »

Hi,
I took the demo "Find latest/newest modified file in a folder" and altered it to send an email to my clients when a new file is dropped in a folder.  Works great, but I'm having a problem excluding files.
I put an exclude file name of "Passport Print.*" in the exclude line but in the File Monitor on the Triggering Events tab, but the Browse for file window still opens and it still sends an emal.  How do I correct this please?
Thanks!

Try to type in "Exclude masks" parameter "Passport Print.*" with quotation marks. Your file mask contains a spacebar.

Great, that appears to have done the trick.  Will keep testing before I go live with the clients!
Thanks!
