Title: D-Link Import Link Error
Post by: johnck on 11 Aug 2009 07:30:27 AM
Hi All

This is a nasy one, I have several D-Lists that need to be updated to add in new items every night, it is all set up to run using import links and macros. The new items come from Contributor and are added to the D-Lists which are then used, the next day, in other contributor applications. This has all been done using 8.3 when there are new items to add everything is fine.

The problem is when ther are no new items and the import location is empty, the import mode is append so only new items should be there. This causes the import link to fail, and so the macro fails.

Any idears on how I can get it to ignore the empty import link?

Thanks
