Public method Open

Puts the output manager in a state where it is ready to append multiple reports of a specified format. The Open call is usually followed by one or more AppendTable or AppendLine calls and finally a Close.

The results of composing multiple reports can be delivered in two ways. (1) If the the dest parameter is specified then the formatted report is placed into a file with that name in the current job's home folder, which must have been previously set. The return string is the full name of the file. (2) If that dest parameter is null then the formatted report is return as a string and no file is written.

All output formats can be delivered as either a named file, or as a string representation. Although an XLSX can be returned as a bae64 encoded string, that feature is currently disabled.
