Using VFP 5.0:

The following is documented behavior, as stated in http://www.microsoft.com/kb/articles/q109/8/44.htm.

The EXPORT and COPY TO commands, when used with spreadsheets (I use them with TYPE XL5), add the table's field name to the first row of each spreadsheet.

Thus, if I had a table with a field name of FIELD_1, with one record having the value 'testing', and I EXPORTed it using EXPORT TO tmp TYPE XL5, the spreadsheet would have FIELD_1 in the first row, and 'testing' in the second.

Has anyone come up with any methods to avoid this? I do NOT want the table's field names exported, too.

Thanks,

Jody
