Judith, Another option might be to use a cursorToXml.
Then you can convert that to a comma separated file. If done right, you could probably automate the whole things (look up the tag in the structure to determine what type of delimiter to use.) You could even make it so you could choose a separator other than a comma (say a tab). Of course, depending on why you want it in a CSV format, it may be that an XML format will work just as well.

What would be the simplest way to do this? I also would like to take a csv file and append it to a dbf file with memo fields. I tried converting the file to a string using strtofile and then using a alines but the file is so big that it generates a subscript out of range error. I am using VFP 8.0.
