Export out of AccuZIP6 as Pipe delimited text

Description

This command allows you to export your AccuZIP6 Database file as a pipe delimited (|) text file. The text file will only have | characters in between each field; no commas will separate the fields. By default, the command will export your data to C:\pipe.txt. Change the path in all three instances of the path being mentioned in the command if you plan on giving the file a different name or if you plan on saving the file to a different location.

The Command

SET SAFETY OFF
PUBLIC comString
COPY TO C:\PIPE.TXT DELIMITED WITH CHARACTER |
comString=FILETOSTR("c:\pipe.txt")
comString=STRTRAN(comString,'"','')

In the Save As box of the Command window, give the command a name, such as Export as Pipe Delimited Text.

Click Run to create the export file.

You are a genius and I have no excuse for not thinking of this before calling. Our customer is good with cutting the tops and bottoms for the booklets to get under 16 ounces. Thank you for getting me out of a jam and thank you even more for offering your help with this project! I decided to switch to AccuZIP after speaking with Steve at the Minuteman Show. I was impressed with his idea of customer service and you have totally proven him right.
