Hi Jarek,

XDFWriter features automatic enumeration of otherwise identical filenames instead of overwriting.
Could this be made available for TextFileWriter?
This would ensure correct correlation between our XDF records and XLS records.
Can the actual enumerated filename be retrieved from XDFWriter during runtime?

Thanks,

Marius

The TextFileWriter already has an option to create files with unique names: \"Unique name\".

Yes, it is possible to get the current file name from the Advanced Properties of XDFFileWriter.

Thanks Jarek, also for the other post.

The \"unique name\" property did not work for me, only after restarting BioEra. Must have been crashed.
Now it works.
