Re: Warning Message - Huh?

Rob,
Thanks. I read the message at least six times before I sent the email; missed the '/' every time - obviously. Too early in the morning, I guess, or I need another cup of coffee.

When you say OBJ(('USR/PROJECTS/*')) instead of OBJ(('/USR/PROJECTS/*')) 
(Notice the additional slash at the beginning?)
it says to assume the current directory. Current directory can be set with the home directory of the user profile or the CD command. 

For example, if you have the following directory structure:
/
/USR/PROJECTS/yadda yadda yadda
/home/JERRY/USR/PROJECTS/yadda yadda yadda
/ThisHereDirectory/SomeSubDirectory/USR/PROJECTS/yadda yadda yadda
Which one would it save? Should that depend on whatever your current directory is? Yes it should. Now, this job log is telling you which one it saved, based on your current directory. It's telling you your current directory was the root, or /, directory. And this USR... directory was saved directly off of the root.
Don't like the message in the joblog? Then change OBJ(('USR/PROJECTS/*')) to OBJ(('/USR/PROJECTS/*')) or whatever subdirectory you really want it to save.
