Re: WatchFolder() - updated on 2016-11-30

Hi again! I have fine-tuned an application of your script to monitor a folder constantly. If any file shows up there, it checks to see if the file begins with a certain string. If it does, then it appends a tick count to the filename. Thank you for making this possible! #NoEnv #Warn #Include WatchFo...

Hi All! This sounds like a great tool. I am going to start experimenting with this now. I would like to use this for a specific scenario. We have a network scanner that scans files directly to a network folder in PDF format. We name the file using the interface at the scanner. However, if the name y...
