JMP is quering Save As after actually saving file

 

//main_call.jsl<BR />open log(1);

jsl = Get Environment Variable("jsl_var");

include(jsl);
path_to_jmp = Get Environment Variable("jmp_var");
csv_path = Get Environment Variable("csv_var");
path_final = Get Environment Variable("out_var");

x = my_real_code(path_to_jmp, csv_path, path_final);

 

 

my_real_code = Function({path_to_jmp, csv_path, path_final},{dt, dtNew, names, ngraphs, current_graph, char_type, name, final_name, name, picture_path},
//This adds csv file to JMP file
names default to here(1);
dt = Open( Char(path_to_jmp), invisible);
dtNew = Open(Char(csv_path), invisible);

dt << concatenate(dtNew, append to first table(1));
dt << save(Char(path_to_jmp)); //Saves JMP file, but also asks me to Save As I don't know why<BR />);<BR />//final.jsl

I am using environment variables to send paths of different files that I want to be added/ran.

 

The issue is that whenever I execute the save(Char(path_to_jmp)); in final.jsl, it also pops up a Save As window to save the JMP file which I do not know why it's doing it.

 

when setting my environment variables, this is what I execute:

 

 

echo open log(1); Get Environment Variable("jsl_var"); Get Environment Variable("jmp_var"); Get Environment Variable("csv_var"); Get Environment Variable("out_var");>main_call.jsl



set "jsl_var=C:\Users\variables\final.jsl"&&set "jmp_var=C:\Users\variables\sample_output_data.jmp"&&set "csv_var=C:\Users\variables\generic_csv.csv"&&set "out_var=C:\Users\variables\PNGs\" && "C:\Program Files\SAS\JMP\14\jmp.exe " C:\Users\variables\main_call.jsl

 

 

 

Is there something wrong in my calls? or my JMP script? Not sure why it's not just saving 

Re: JMP is quering Save As after actually saving file

I tried several things, can't reproduce the issue.

Are there log messages? (I hope you find something like "file already exists, overwrite?")

What version of JMP? 

Is there enough disk space for 2 copies of the .JMP?

Is the .JMP file read only? (see Saving to disk as hidden or read-only  ).

 

A crude work-around might look like:

• save to a new name "aa.jmp", in the same directory
• rename the old file to "bb.jmp"
• rename "aa.jmp" to the actual name
• delete bb.jmp

Tech support is my next recommendation.

Re: JMP is quering Save As after actually saving fileHi. It appears the first comment was correct. It does give me an issue when it overwrites a jmp file. Is there a way to enable overwriting a jmp file?Re: JMP is quering Save As after actually saving file

this may lead you to the real answer. I believe the "LemP" answer has good information.

Let us know what the answer is!

Re: JMP is quering Save As after actually saving fileFigured out what the issue is. It looks like when I run my jsl script, it makes my directory 'Read-Only'.
How does that even happen? And how do I disable that property?Re: JMP is quering Save As after actually saving fileI tried that as well, but had no luck.
The thing is, when I was originally testing this code, it worked. It would save and then perform the rest of the code. I'm wondering if maybe I set an environmental variable wrong and that might've changed something in my setting? Or is there a setting in JMP that can solve this?Re: JMP is quering Save As after actually saving file

Will it work with just dt<
