Have problem creating an export file from a database within Clarion 6.3 to a basic formatted file. I need a file without quotes and is tab delimited.

I have tried the following:

! With Comma Delimited and no quotes
!Export_State FILE,DRIVER('BASIC','/ALWAYSQUOTE=OFF','/ENDOFRECORD=1,13'),NAME('State'),PRE(XA),BINDABLE,CREATE

! With Tabs - But Has Quotes
!Export_State FILE,DRIVER('BASIC','/COMMA=9','/ENDOFRECORD=1,13'),NAME('State'),PRE(XA),BINDABLE,CREATE

!Export_State FILE,DRIVER('Basic','/ALWAYSQUOTE=OFF','/FIELDDELIMITER=1,64','/COMMA=9','/EndofRecord=1,13'),NAME('State'),PRE(XA),BINDABLE,CREATE

Either it is tab delimited with quotes or Comma delimited without quotes.

By the way I am using a Queue in the creation of the file and then exporting from the Queue to the basic file export.
Does anyone have any ideas?
 
Hi!

Try with a space between then ::

! With Comma Delimited and no quotes
!Export_State FILE,DRIVER('BASIC','/ALWAYSQUOTE=OFF /ENDOFRECORD=1,13'),NAME('State'),PRE(XA),BINDABLE,CREATE

! With Tabs - But Has Quotes
!Export_State FILE,DRIVER('BASIC','/COMMA=9 /ENDOFRECORD=1,13'),NAME('State'),PRE(XA),BINDABLE,CREATE

!Export_State FILE,DRIVER('BASIC','/COMMA=9 /ALWAYSQUOTE=OFF /FIELDDELIMITER=1,64 /EndofRecord=1,13'),NAME('State'),PRE(XA),BINDABLE,CREATE

Regards
