I'd like very much to thank you for answering. I realize it was an odd question, but it did not pop up in "Export" or say clearly "Tab-delimited" under Save As, and to be honest, I'd never used .csv. ... Oops!
Another related question -- sorry to bother you! -- is whether someone could write a macro to give the option of having no text delimiter ... in the drop-down menu of Edit Filter Settings in the .csv dialogue box? Further: I have discovered that OO copies Excel in a lot of things, but not in some ways. For instance, in Excel, F2 toggles first to Enter mode and then to Edit mode in a cell. How do I toggle to Edit mode from within the cell? F2 in OO only works to get to Enter mode. Lastly: Is there some way to set OO to have all Excel features, such as this? I mean, change from OO features to Excel ones instantly? Or do I have to wait for people to write macros? [Not that all OO ways are worse than Excel's (some are better). But a) I'm used to Excel, and b) some are better in Excel.] I really hope you don't mind, and thank you for answering my first question. :) Clare "G.

If you see "Edit Filter settings" checkbox in the lower left of the dialogue box, enable it so you can set the separation character to tab et cetera. -- PLEASE KEEP MESSAGES ON THE LIST.
