That does export the data without the field names, but Excel does not recognize the separate fields in the string. If a do an addional sequence as follows:

x = filetostr('text.csv')
x = strtran(x,'";"','","')
y = strtofile(x,'text.csv')

then the file is legible to Excel again. Of course - one must be careful about the character chosen for the delimiter to ensure that data is not misinterpreted for the export and strtran.

Thanks much for your help.
