Don't include the ForceCSV setting if you don't want to do this for all work stations. Just name the specific workstation in the INI file. Here is some more documentation about how this works:
Running without ExcelIt is possible to use Ssi2Xl without Excel installed on a site. Ssi2Xl will generate a CSV file and launch a selected CSV file viewer. To accomplish this the following must be provided.
- An Ssi2Xl.ini file must exist where Ssi2Xl.dll is loaded from.
- There must be a section in the Ssi2Xl.ini file named Initialization
- There must be an entry the Initialization section <machine name>-CSVViewer=<program name>
- An optional entry the Initialization section <machine name>-CSVViewerOptions=<program options>
- An optional entry the Initialization section <machine name>-CSVDir=<data path>
<machine name> is the name of the machine that this entry references - same as the Environment variable COMPUTERNAME
<program name> the fully qualified path name of the executable to launch when the creation of the CSV file is complete
<program options> passed on the command line for the program described above
<data path> is the location to place the CSV file if no name is provided
NOTE: If <machine name>-CSV(Viewer|Dir) is not found then Ssi2Xl will look for *-CSV(Viewer|Dir)
If the EXE specified to open the resulting CSV file is not found, no error is reported.
Or, presuming that you are doing this after hours in a batch file, start the batch file by copying in an SSI2XL.INI file with the CSV setting, perform the ExcelDirect GridView commands, then copy back the original INI settings.
Don't hold your breath for suppressing the splash screen. Why is this important to you?
