Here's an extract from VFP5 Help :-

Note that the WITH Delimiter clause can be combined with the WITH CHARACTER clause. For example, the following command creates a text file with character fields delimited with underscores and all fields delimited with semicolons:

COPY TO mytxt.txt DELIMITED WITH _ WITH CHARACTER ‘;’

Somewhere here is your answer, as long as this works in VFP 3 :-)
