Dick,

You can:

Unload data from tablename as csv

That will eliminate the quotes and the currency format.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - SET CURRENCY

While we are working toward a switch to Extreme 9.0, we are still 
operating in 7.5.

State has decided we must file sales tax on-line, but we can upload as a 
CSV file.
Quite easy to create using Gateway Export.

However...

Using   SET CURRENCY ' ' PREF 2 D

Gets rid of the $ in the output, gets rid of the comma between 
thousands, but the decimal becomes a comma.
Help indicates it should be a period.

In addition, is it possible to eliminate the double quote marks around 
each item?

They recommend saving to an Excel file, then exporting as CSV.
Results are exactly the same as exporting directly from R:Base.
