Run CIP macro on server when PE drops file in Dropbox folder #183

Open ericawarren opened 8 years ago

Process would be PE saves styled MS in dropbox folder shared from server, powershell script on server runs the CIP application macro, saves text file output in some standard location for someone else to pick up later and submit to the LOC.

Need to determine some kind of folder structure to keep imprints separate, since different people handle submissions for different PE groups.

Possible to have macro check if styles are applied first, so PE can just drop every MS and if it doesn't have styles, it just gets moved to a different location for PE to tag manually?

Also have to possibly disable autoupdates on the server, or at least disable popups, because if the script runs and the update popup appears, the rest of the macro won't run until it is dismissed.
