RE: [KCFusion] Creating a CSV file
Title: RE: [KCFusion] Creating a CSV file I cannot specify a Qualifier so any other characters are out. This is not for a spreadsheet. It is for a UPC shipping application.

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. Cheers!

Have you tried placing single quotes around the text field? Change #LocSendTo1# to '#LocSendTo1#' Change output="#ResaleNumber#,#LocSendTo1#,#DeliveryStreet#,#DeliveryCity#,#DeliveryState#,#DeliveryZip#" to output="#ResaleNumber#,'#LocSendTo1#',#DeliveryStreet#,#DeliveryCity#,#DeliveryState#,#DeliveryZip#" Just a thought, Randy -Original Message-From: Rick Eidson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]Sent: Monday, October 15, 2001 2:53 PMTo: CF-List (E-mail)Subject: [KCFusion] Creating a CSV file ',' ,'All')##CHR(13)##DeliveryCompany##Chr(13)##TitleCompanyName##chr(13)##TitleCompanyAgent##Chr(13)#"> LocSendTo1 = ListGetAt(LocSendTo, 1, CHR(13))> LocSendTo1#,#DeliveryStreet#,#DeliveryCity#,#DeliveryState#,#DeliveryZip#"> My problem is that sometimes LocSendTo1 contains a Comma witch causes my CSV file insert another Column.

Title: RE: [KCFusion] Creating a CSV file I am checking to see if I can use a TAB. The problem is this isn't going to be read with Excel but imported into a UPS/RPS application.
