Razzak, thanks for the explanation. I now understand the difference between Text (which is really "delimited text") and Report Emulation Text. I should have been using Report Emulation Text, and the condition I was experiencing was not in fact a bug.
There is room here to improve the error handling however. The program should never write a zero length file, rather the user should be told what he's doing wrong. Those of us who don't work with R:Base every day need a little help sometimes.
I am grateful for your quick and thorough reply.
Excellent suggestion, Tom!
Remember, there is always a room for improvement.
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
