Hi All,
I am sure I am doing something wrong, so any tips on what are greatly appreciated.
I am using NetEmailReceive and have the following code. I want to save my attachments into a folder (the value for the name of the folder is contained in the variable called database). I am not getting any attachments, and the Self.attachmentsListQ (checked in the Done (long command, long finished embed) has 0 Records.
ThisEmailReceive.Server = 'pop.mymailserver.com'
ThisEmailReceive.Port =110
ThisEmailReceive.User= clip(MotorClubIntegrationEmailAddress)
ThisEmailReceive.Password= clip(MotorClubIntegrationPassword)
ThisEmailReceive.OptionsDelete=0
ThisEmailReceive.OptionsDontSaveAttachments = 0
ThisEmailReceive.OptionsDontSaveEmbeds = 0
ThisEmailReceive.AttachmentPath = longPath()&'\'&clip(database)&'\'
ThisEmailReceive.Decide(NET:EmailDownload)
ThisEmailReceive.Ask(NET:EmailDownload)

Would you use:
clip(path())&'\'&clip(database)&'\'
Longpath, in my understanding, is just for getting the actual proper path out of one of those pesky "i'm an old computer" short paths.
Also, you could assign the path earlier to a var (just in case the path changes for whatever reason). That way, if you want to change the path, you don't have to do it in this code, you can just change the var assignment.

what Stu said.
The trick to debugging is to not assume anything. So examine the contents of
ThisEmailReceive.AttachmentPath
after the call to
ThisEmailReceive.AttachmentPath = longPath()&'\'&clip(database)&'\'
Cheers
