Yes -- this does work -- It also turns out it DOES work using the 'tab' key, but looks bad, but that it will not work from an SB+ '/TCL shell'.
I'm sort of hoping the new features (which includes a 'database viewer' I hear) will make this kind of thing better for us going into SQL-land settings! Generating a tab-delimited file is something a novice SQL users can do - it's point and shoot for the most part. I'm hoping our interpretation is as nice!

EVERY database product can do what I'm asking. It's not rocket science or anything! (pun unintended!) I could just write BASIC code if I wanted - I'm trying to find what I'm thinking should already be 'inside' of UniData. If the answer is 'it is not there' then I will be forced to ask if someone from Rocket can address 'why not'?? _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
