I am trying to export a query to a csv file using a schema.ini file in Access 2000.

I have to use this method because I require the output to be to 4 decimal places and my machine is locked down so I cannot change its settings.

The problem I am having is that I also require text qualifier to be set to 'none'. However, when I use the "none" string in the .ini as described by microsoft, I still get text in double quotes.

Schema.ini settings:
[TEST NONE.TXT]
ColNameHeader=True
CharacterSet=1252
Format=CSVDelimited
DecimalSymbol=.
NumberDigits=4
TextDelimeter="none"

Is there something that I am doing wrong or is this another problem with the software?

TextDelimiter is spelt incorrectly in your file. I just ran this with it
correctly spelt and it works fine.
