I am looking for an example of how to use the GET_EVENT_INFO(FILENAME) function on the !Process tab for a FILE EVENT to trigger off of the presence of a specific file name in the target directory.

I have a FILE EVNT in 11.2 with PATH_FILE_COUNT >0 set up. I would like to have the EVNT only react to a file or files in the directory that match a particular name or mask like d*.txt . I am looking for an example of how to actually use the GET_EVENT_INFO(FILENAME) function to accomplish this.

Hi,

You can use a wildcard in a file event. It cannot be part of the path but it can be used for the file name. In the 'Path' field you could have something like:
c:\temp\*.txt

Thanks very much. That wasn't very clear to me in the documentation.
