Hi,
I had created a file called "Input.txt" which contains 2 lines as
ABC123;01/02/2008
PRQ456;04/23/2004
I had written LineParse function.
In that I am getting the first name in the line. Using that name I am searching respective documents in DB.
These documents retrived and stroed in one folder with naming convention as "<type><inc no>.PDF"
Where type is : R/X/F depending on document type.
Inc no: is the number which should increment by 1 each time I am storing document in folder.

Everything is working fine for me except "inc no".
Till now I am incrementing that number depending on responses I got.
For first "ABC123" I got 2 responses and for "PQR456" I am receiving 4 responses, so total 6 documents should be available in output folder.

sprintf(Incnumber,"%06d", iResponse + 1); // need to change the logic
sprintf(Docfile,"%s/%c%s.%s",Dir_Path,DType,Incnumber,"PDF");

But my inc no is overrided for first 2 docs, hence I am receiving only 4 docs in output folder as r000001.PDF, r000002.PDF, r000003.PDF, r000004.PDF.
As r000001.PDF and r000002.PDF is getting override each time.

Help me out.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for reply.

I had called a ExtractDoc() function with iResponse.
So for first line parse i get iResponse = 0 and then iResponse =1.
For second line parse i get iResponse=0 then =1 then =2 then =4 etc....

So whenever I increment Incnumber,
sprintf(Incnumber,"%06d", iResponse + 1);
for iResponse 0 and 1 , document name gets override.

Thanks in advance

Solution 1

Without seeing additional code, my guess is that you reset your increment counter for every line you parse.

Cheers

Solution 2

You just need to maintain a cumulative counter for the responses, for instance:

C

iTotalResponses += iResponse;
sprintf(Incnumber,"%06d", iTotalResponses + 1); 
sprintf(Docfile,"%s/%c%s %s",Dir_Path,DType,Incnumber,"PDF");

:)
