Brad, I don’t know - I rarely use 4D’s export and when I do it’s only for a quick text file (tab delimited) export. I do my main exports using code and the csv version follows the cvs rules and it works great. Sorry I can’t share the code - it is buried in a contracted project. I suspect there are some 4Ders that have csv export code at their fingertips (or in a component) that may chip in here… Cheers, Keith
