Your solution works, except when you output to a file, you also get the column 
names many times. Not really a clean way to create a true tab delimited 
file...but thanks to your insight, I feel I am getting closer.

Thank you








(SELECT Col_A, (CHAR(009)), Col_B, (CHAR(009)) FROM ...)

Gateway allows you to export in TAB format.

?

I don't remember ever being able to do so with the UNLOAD command although you 
could probably concoct a SELECT command to pick the columns you want and put 
a??(CHAR(009)) between each one if you need to do it that way.

(SELECT Col_A, (CHAR(009)), Col_B, (CHAR(009)) FROM ...)

?

Alastair
