The output folder does have to be accessible to you (i.e. your login has access privileges). The Watcher is operating from the ME instance on your desktop - so, if your permissions don't grant access to the server location, it doesn't have permission to add files there. I had to get special permission from our IT to access this file location for the purpose of adding files (not that they were concerned about 'me' as such, just that IT are protective over their core file access- for good and justified reasons) When I click on the Output folder file icon (with the little green arrow) - it opens up the standard Windows file selection menu - and I just select the location I want. Or I could just type in the file address in the box (risk of typos, so I don't). I didn't do anything special to specify the scope of the file locations when I started using Folder watcher - just set one up as a trial ;-) Ann Ryan Cataloguing Manager - Development Wheelers http://secure-web.cisco.com/15UdZVXVKnr20bhfqDbNNfz6qK7RaCjPkKz1uVHRppilVNtXIVVNTxjhbldQQF9Zd6VQSs1C3Bp3aN_KHnXWkjK9UlYzaYCC_7cRPbxiwE_jiUMAZDmCniXQIsdB7N00JHAn1A-YY9I5yBmOV2psZQ-1EOYoRBIPTqhQS2LwdG67R-dybytfJJ4cKOXOC_oYkk0RwizWk9yGwcvIt1-a9UvdHORhw-ARjm8AMkHOipNRddu-CP62Q1Ct9RhJyrHrxwDDOLEOmP4gZMHQM8C1tW905DI9PvgSbdQkVfn-WU0om6F92Tptpyyw9-3cLno5l4BFyNUygpLWdgeueE3R6PG7kjP4w9hLWBMLUV2M0vEYrRb0pALaiSMDqIZ2L3E2VRiezr9HUWKDIcjEFq_wnCVB6r-GbXjakyKiwm_riJ1blyf62J68Lth3EZ_BPUjmPJFKXvseZb2eOQ91JsyGNkA/http%3A%2F%2Fwww.wheelers.co.nz http://secure-web.cisco.com/1BO8AMNkyFzXKQ8-yhNLtlf0TumqT3KDuP-efmnLOhIrrp2WAHN2WD--KY21NC6RUV-ak_RuKeP3fjYravReZUVIhfSJ7e6CB9FTeUJ5KFz7BaM4tCTfCJfpclK9gOqcSyp1dUPJSPbuOmebMhf2HNTyPB8ipvo3McSQjYIvFqVvtzvVdWrnLvJiNXXN1qO9oQZJXx80QrxLrFZxwDGxeMLQY2jEmNeoU3-SlWiCN9-dNRMpuHCWmj_rjqudvh2WtzhkhdT5AcRlOFXrqQKvCfIwf7dSybotj67BZVq8Y2w7UOLqLIl5R5Tw7p8BuYFYaI2Y3enMHqrTVVoHUrSU_rDQcTtm-1ymyA0XNBRBD4IU4XrUF1Pavb9lcUljJim9YCCyyMEA4gkn12_iGaldgapts-RYJqnl_TN99JvF6WnqW6oT1pk55Dx8CJtee2W7rPOE6WYNaXUwV48t_watcog/http%3A%2F%2Fwww.eplatform.co P +64 9 479 7979 EXT 222 F +64 9 479 7949 211 Wairau Rd, Glenfield PO Box 305404, Triton Plaza, Auckland 0757 [log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: MarcEdit support in technical and instructional matters [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Kimberley Edwards Sent: Tuesday, 25 January 2022 10:22 a.m. To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [MARCEDIT-L] Folder Watcher/server question Thanks, Ann -- it does help enormously to know it's possible. As a follow-up question, when I look at the output folder options I'm only shown those locally available to me (rather than the remote folder options that are given for the input folder) -- how are you connecting to your server for the output?
