Cannot change NOAA Report Naming convention
Posted: Wed 25 Jan 2012 7:44 pm
Steve,
I am trying to change the NOAA report naming convention to auto-sort by name, ie for the monthly reports "NOAA_MO_"yyyy_mm".txt" so they auto sort and yearly to "NOAA_YR_"yyyy".txt".
The change for monthly reports works fine, but Cumulus accepts but doesn't use the change for the yearly reports. Next time you do a major rewrite please consider reverse date naming convention for all data files? Makes them easier to find and they auto-sort, particularly once you get more than one years data.
