Hi,

I have the following line:

write #fileNum, Data(i).myDate & "," & Data(i).value

in a loop etc. nothing special.
But I get:

"12/29/1980,1.0653"

which is fine, but i dont want the quotes (") !!! why does VB add the quotes
and how can i remove them?

I want to store it as: #12/29/1980#,1.0653.

Since then i want to make sure it is read as a date and a long .

TIA
-steve

Read the help for "write", "print" and "put"

use Print instead of Write.
