Having another senior moment here. Anyone tell me where on God's
green earth Reporter saves files to? 

It says ** Save ** ReportList04 Can I find the file, I cannot.

Thanks

Bob.

near the bottom...
Default Save  etc.

Bit obvious, but don't forget to click Save bottom right of the config
window.  :-/

I use it, too bad not to be able to drag the file into the destination 
folder, at least the first time. if I forget to modify the current 
directory before, I have to search for the file!.

It's a detail, !Reporter is really very good, certainly the most used 
debugging tool, well done.

The initial default is set to ReportSave#, so a save without a
filename (eg from the menu) will be saved into your CSD (Current Set
Directory), wherever that is. If you save using the command and a
filename it will use that filename.

If you change the default (which is remembered), it will always go
there unless a filename is specified. A popular setting is
    RAM::RamDisc0.$.ReportList# 
as the files are usually of short-term use (hence in RAM) and the #
is replaced by a numeric suffix.
