File Monitor Parameters

Hello.. I have a simple file monitor running which basically watches a folder for new wav files, copies them to another folder and deletes the original. I would like to have an email sent out everytime the transfer takes place with the name of the file that was moved. I tried adding a filename variable to the Pass as Parameters but the email does not seem to catch this..
What is the best way to handle this?
Thanks

Maybe you do something wrong.
Look at my example, it works.
Save the text of the task to a file and use menu Task->Import to import the task into RoboTask.
Do not forget to enable the task after importing.
Code: Select all
;*****************************
;* RoboTask Task file
;* Do not edit in text editor!
