parameter value of the previous run

[chulett]

Don't have the docs here with me, but the API function to get parameter values (DSGetParamInfo?) should have an InfoType to get the value used in the most recent (last) run. Can't go any further back than that without farming the logs but the function should get you what you need.

Copy the file (if arrived) into a common location. Thus if today's file does not arrive, you will have the previous one there.

Crude but simple method.
