I am having trouble writing a .txt file with non-
numeric
fields delimited with ".

In my macro I prepare the data in the format I want.
But
I have tried every type of "save as" and cannot get
the "
around the text column data. The data should look like
this:
"1234","E","OT",8.5,,,,,,"9/26/2004"

Note first column is an employee id, the last column
is a
date. How can I write a file that would give me this
format?
