Thanks Tim
Most of our clients ask for data to be transferred as an sdf file, or as a comma delimited file. I need to send them the data in a format they can easily import into whatever data management program they may be using. I know that XML is the way things seem to be headed, but for now I need a format they can understand.

Is it possible using ADO to export a recordset to an SDF or comma delimited file? I haven't seen any ADO documentation on exporting a recordset or saving it to file. Is it necessary to create a file and write the recordset to the file 1 field at a time?
