Exporting CSV file to unicode .txt file - " around strings
 
I am saving a CSV file (which originated in Reporting Services) as a Unicode
text file. When I open the text file there are " quotation marks around a
text string. Is there a way to to Save As... without having the "" around
the text?!

Thanks!
Paul

I've never used Unicode characters, but....

Maybe you could use a macro that writes your data:

Earl Kiosterud's Text Write program:
www.smokeylake.com/excel
(or directly: http://www.smokeylake.com/excel/text_write_program.htm)

Chip Pearson's:
http://www.cpearson.com/excel/imptext.htm

J.E. McGimpsey's:
http://www.mcgimpsey.com/excel/textfiles.html

======
Earl's may be sufficient right out of the box. He supports lots of options.
