Anyone know of a way to output a table's data to ASCII file with a delimiter of choice but without the double quotation marks that the EXPORT statement gives you?
I'd like to avoid having to define each field in the table that I need output (like PUT UNFORMATTED).

Thanks,

Doh. Sometimes you need to ask the question to figure out the answer yourself. I guess I could do this using a dynamic query.

How about the EXPORT verb?

I think that he is saying that he does not want quotes around character data.

EXPORT will always quote character data. It allows you to change the delimiter between fields but not the delimiter around character data.

The only way around that is to use PUT. Dynamic queries allow a generic procedure to be written with will do the job.
