Hello,
I am trying to export data from a worksheet into a text file for use by a different application. The problem is during export quotation marks are added. For instance: A single cell contains the text: >12345,”text1”,”text2”<. And that is how it should appear in the textfile as well. Instead it appears as : >“12345”,””text1””,””text2””<. Not quite what it should be.

The code I am using:

Dim Waarde As DataObject
Set Waarde = New DataObject
Cells(1, 1).Copy
Waarde.GetFromClipboard

Open ThisWorkbook.Path & "\exporteren.txt" For Output As #1
Write #1, Waarde.GetText
Close #1

Does anybody have a sugestion?

Jokko,

According to the Help file, Write # should not be used with strings that contain imbedded quotation marks. Have a look at the Print # statement.


Regards,
Mike
 
Some times things can be so simple, thanks Mike.
