SPACE or TAB separator for Write Line

[Dominique Favre]

Hello,

I need to create an ascii file with SPACE or TAB separator instead of ','
(VALX + ", " + VALY). Replacing ", " by " " doesn't work.

Any suggestion is welcome. Thanks

It certainly should. I know it works for me.

You could try inserting CHR(9) instead.

VALX + CHR(9) + VALY

I think it was SaBarber that turned us on to that.

Thanks, but I tried this already. Only the first value is written.

Any chance you could post your code? Something is not right. You might want to try retyping your variables. PCDMIS does somoe goofy htings there sometimes that fixes. Doesn't sound like your problem though but you never know.

Just curious.. why the tab OR space and not the comma? Since it can be either, do you have a problem with the comma?

If it is that you cannot use the comma then try the pipe(|).

I tried to attached a part program example using CHR(9)
