You can set output table using two methods: setting the table name (assuming you are connected to a database) - (a) and setting the entire data source - (b):
If you are writing script outside TextConverter the API looks like this:
Set DS = TextConverter.GetOutputDS()
DS.table = "tablename" ) ‘- (a)
DS.SetDS( "c:\data\output.dbf" ) ‘- (b)
If you are writing script inside TextConverter it looks like this:
This.DSOut.table = "tablename" ) ‘- (a)
This.DSOut.SetDS( "c:\data\output.dbf" ) ‘- (b)
An Excel file is also considered as a database, so you can set the worksheet as:
Set DS = TextConverter.GetOutputDS()
DS.table = "worksheetname" ) ‘- (a)
DS.SetDS( "...\file.mdb:worksheetname" ) ‘- (b)
