Valid AUTO file types

 

Top  Previous  Next

 

The following file types will be processed when placed in the AUTO directory (other file types will prompt the user to open as text files):

 

       PDS / PDC                If a .PDS or .PDC script file name exists on the command line it will be executed as soon as the program completes the load process.
       CID                If a .CID file is sent on the command line, it will be automatically loaded as a caseid list.  This is the same a using File / Build Custom Diagram / From Case Id List.

If the filename begins with 'TEMP', (i.e. Templist.CID) then IMW will make a temporary copy of the caseid list, then it will erase the original file.  Unless the user specifically saves the resulting diagram, the temporary .CID file will be erased automatically when the diagram window is closed.

 

       DGM                If a .DGM file is sent on the command line, it will be automatically loaded as a diagram.  This is the same a using File / Open Diagram.
       TXT                If a .TXT file is sent on the command line, it will be automatically loaded as a text file in the editor.  This is the same a using Edit / Open Edit Window.
