Hi Joel,
It appears as if you must use a file extension that is in a "recognized" list. This is for
security reasons. You can edit the registry to add additional extensions to the recognized list,
but I doubt that you'll have any success exporting without an extension.

You could always try renaming the file via code, after the export was completed.

I need to export a table to a text file but I do not want the file name to have a file extention.
When I try to do the export I get the following error message: “Cannot update. Database or
object is read-only.†If I add the .txt file extention the export works fine. Can anyone help
me with this problem?
