That is the correct format. Are you needing to create a file for importing into Lotus Notes? That is the only software I know of that uses a tilde delimited file without commas. If so, I have a PRG in the files section that demonstrates how to create such a file. http://www.levelextreme.com/wconnect/wc.dll?UniversalThread~?2,54,Forum=5,19,1082

Is there something I am doing wrong? Or is there another way I can create a delimeted file in the format that I need?
