report by: Joe Blow
doc source: attendance>prn
model: attenddance.mod

thanks..tony nTony, here are some answers which I hope help you:

(1) If you save your report and desired model as a Portable Report File (PRF), the PRF will consist of the report along with the model together in one file. This means you are never in doubt as to what model file goes with that report (no need to have a "comment" with that info)

(2) If you are trying to write the above notes to automate your Monarch processing, check out Monarch Data Pump Personal Edition. MDP lets you schedule and automate any and all Monarch processing. You define a DPF (Data Pump File) which contains the report name(s) you want MDP to open, what model file to use, what sort, filter and/or summary (if desired) to also invoke, and what output file name and type you want MDP tp create.

Hope this helps, Mike
