Yes, if your app uses the commas. Most of the time the commas are only available in the presentation logic (not in the DB). I am not sure that Excel will recognize "43,832.76" as numeric (so that you can do cool stuff like SUM() on it) but I know it will see 43832.76 as a number.

Example: 43,832.76 Should you have everything quoted? "Robin", "Greenhagen", "43,832.76", "Lenexa, KS" Ryan -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Greenhagen, Robin Sent: Monday, October 15, 2001 3:32 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [KCFusion] Creating a CSV file Actually, you probably want a quote/comma delimited file. Where all non-numeric flds get "" around them. "Robin", "Greenhagen", 16.49, "Lenexa, KS" Cheers!
