Re: Client files

Just to add - if you send a file to the ui - you can do it with one or two
parameters..
If you send it with 2 - the second is the name of the file to use on the
client machine..

One problem is that you can't copy of a file to the client if that file is
open on the client alreadt (as the file is locked) - so for example - if
you create all your reports as "report.pdf" and send a "report.pdf" to the
front end - and open it ( which the client_execute will do) - if you try to
send *another* "report.pdf" - it wont be able to get written..
For this reason - try to use unique filenames, or at least check that the
file was copied successfully before trying to open it - as per Alains
code...
