entered is not limited to one character.


False Value

does not equal "Exempt", In this example, zero (0).
Again, the value entered is not limited to one character.

Format String


The data exported can be formatted using standard Visual Basic format strings.

Justification


Fixed width fields can be justified left or right.

Quote/Delimit String


The general formatting options allow for quotes around numeric fields, character fields, all fields or
no fields. You may run into a case where the import/export text file does not follow these general
rules and requires that specific fields be enclosed in quotes. Enter the letter Q to enclose the
currently selected field in quotes. Enter N if not enclose in quotes.

The general formatting options allow for fields to be either tab or comma delimited. You may run
into a case where a special character other than tab and comma is being used for a field delimiter.
Enter the decimal value for the special delimiter character in angle brackets (<>). For example, if
the currently selected field is delimited by the pipe character (|), then enter <124>.

The quote and delimiter values are combined into one field, both being optional. Following are a
few examples:

Q

Encloses field in quotes (").

<124>

The delimiter for this field is the pipe character (|).

Q<124>

The field is enclosed in quotes and the delimiter is a pipe
character.
