Common Errors
Though some error messages are specific to a task in particular, others may apply to any and all tasks
because they are related more to the system than to PReS itself. Some examples would be W3813, W3830,
W3991, W4005. These correspond to issues such as not having any space to write files, permission errors
on folders or files, etc.
Comments Tab
The Comments tab is common to all tasks. It contains a single text area (Task comments)that lets you
write comments about the task. These comments are saved when the dialog is closed with the OKbutton,
and are displayed in the Task Comments Pane.
Rename
Rename action tasks are used to rename the job files they receive. Note that you can see how each file is
renamed via the Object Inspector when stepping through a process in Debug mode.
Input
Any job file, in any format.
Processing
The task renames the job file to the desired name, and changes the value of %f and %Fto reflect the new
name.
Output
The input data file is output, with the new name.
Properties
