I have often wondered whether to use: SetDirectory[NotebookDirectory[]] Export["TestResultTime.txt", mTimeDiff, "Table"] or Export[NotebookDirectory[] <> "TestResultTime.txt", mTimeDiff, "Table"] I have left Mathematica open for 2 days as it was running a very long test. Maybe something became corrupted. The first method did not work. It appears SetDirectory[] simply stopped functioning. Personally, I think the second method is better since it is atomic in nature. It doesn't depend on any stateful settings. Has anyone else had this issue? Thanks, Paul McHale | Electrical Engineer, Energetic Systems | Excelitas Technologies Corp.
