Exporting error message

I am using a macro with a transfer text action that is to Export delimited
but I get a halt due to the destination file not exisiting. It doesn't exist
because I am creating it with the export function. I created a .txt file
with that name in the proper folder but I still get the error.

Any ideas what the problem could be? Need any additional info?

Thanks!!

Probably the path+filename string is too long. I am not 100% sure, but the
limit may be 132 characters, or perhaps 64 characters? (I've just never
tested to be sure.)

Try a shorter path+filename string for the destination file.

Also, be sure that the extension of the destination filename is .txt, or
..csv, or .tab, or .asc. Other extensions will not be allowed.
