Excel likes to do what it wants. If it thinks you don't need the qualifier, it
won't put them in. Maybe you could write your own exporting program that would behave exactly the way you want: Here are three sites that you could steal some code from: Chip Pearson's: http://www.cpearson.com/excel/imptext.htm J.E. McGimpsey's: http://www.mcgimpsey.com/excel/textfiles.html (or maybe you could build your own formula that concatenates the cells using a giant formula and copy|paste into Notepad.)
