Answer 1

Hi
Even if i use a new clean blank rtf doc as the template, it still doesnt write out a file.
When i look in the log directory at the .out files produced, they look right. If i open the .out file with Adobe Reader 9.1, the doc looks exactly as it should. It just doesn't write the file to the destination folder specified.
It cannot be permissions as it will write out RTF/excel files to the same directory with no problems. The report is using a bursting definition but the problem cant be that because it bursts the data correctly, as shown if i specify rtf output in the bursting definition/as shown by the .out files when i specify pdf as the output in the bursting definition. Also, i get the same result even if i schedule any other report that does not use a bursting definition.
I do get an error sometimes when i try to open pdf reports : Cannot use Adobe Reader to view PDF in your web browser. I feel somehow that this may be related and that if i fix this, i could be sorted, but im not even sure im on the right track here.
Im really really REALLY at wits' end here, ive been trying to solve for weeks, but just cant figure it out. Any further ideas would be most welcome, thanks.
