Subject: [RBASE-L] - Gateway Export Question


We have a new customer that wants a flat file sent to them with the fields
separated by the | (Pipe) symbol and no quotes.  I thought this was going to
be very simple, but I am having an issue where it is giving me blank (No
separator) instead of |

Here is the command I am using

gateway export Tab p:\durgin.txt select * from quotetable option COL_NAMES
ON | separator |

If I change it to Separator #, then that works as does other symbols.  I
tried putting the quotes around the pipe '|' symbol but still no luck.  Any
suggestions ?

This is RB V9.1
