Chromatography Forum

We are integrating our GC/MS with our LIMS sytem by using PDFs of the printout created. I downloaded a pdf to print software and installed, but the macro for the qual_rpt(library search report) and the blanks are automatically named as "qual_rpt" or "MSDA". I figure it has to do with the macro that runs these functions. I have some how figured out how to change the qual_rpt macro, but I am having trouble with the blank one. I need to change the macro so that it automatically names the file with the smaple name. HELP!!

Hello,

To customise the name of the PDF, you set the name before the startprint command, find e.g.
and change to eg I suggest it is best not to use sample name, as people may have entered prohibited characters, and can
cause system error, and if that occurs during a run, you efforts in implementing a electronic system,
will be caustically referenced.

A hint, To find which macros are being run, is to activate the logging feature, and save it to a file, before
executing a command, you can then find the section of code that is naming the PDF in the log file.
