URL link Is Not Working in Report

Lino — Fri, 09 Jun 2023 19:56:04 GMT

I am creating report from data table and add "Report" URL link at bottom of the report. However, the URL link is not working.

I am suspecting the way I get the URL link might be incorrect. Need community help to take a look if anything wrong on the code.

dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/big class.jmp" );
dt << Save( "$TEMP/" || Char( dt << get name )||".jmp" ); 
nm = "$TEMP/" || Char( dt << get name )||".jmp"; //Get URL link for the file

vb = V List Box();
dt << Get As Report;
vb << Append((dt << Get As Report));
vb << Append(Button Box("Report", Web("nm"), <<underlinestyle));

New Window ("Test", vb);

If I understand what you want, I think this code will give you what you want

names default to here(1);
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/big class.jmp" );
vb = V List Box();

vb << Append(dt << Get As Report);
vb << save html("$TEMP/" || Char( dt << get name )||".html");
vb << Append(Button Box("Report", Web("$TEMP/" || Char( dt << get name )||".html"), <<underlinestyle));

New Window ("Test", vb);

The original example had quotation marks around the variable name nm that were not needed -- web("nm"). I'm also not sure about the goal, but much to my surprise, the web command did re-open the JMP data table without the quotation marks.
