You could try two pipes with no space and/or add another option that confirms a 
parameter that you don’t need changed.

I suspect R:Base is expecting something to follow your pipe...

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
