Hello,

I thought I had made progress using:

CPYTOIMPF FROMFILE(&INFPS) TOSTMF(&OUTFPS) +
MBROPT(*REPLACE) STMFCODPAG(*PCASCII) +
RCDDLM(*CRLF) DTAFMT(*DLM) STRDLM(*NONE)

But this only worked on a physical file with DDS definition.

I am using a single record file of 2000 char, this did not work.

This is a portion of the file.

0,0,0,995,0,0,=(""),=("") ,=(""),=("")
170,0,0,=(""),=("") ,=(""),=("")
0,0,1082,0,0,=(""),=("") ,=(""),=("")
0,0,0,0,1170,0,0,=(""),=("") ,=(""),=("")
0,1082,0,0,=(""),=("") ,=(""),=("")
082,0,0,=(""),=("") ,=(""),=("")
1170,0,0,=(""),=("") ,=(""),=("")
995,0,0,=(""),=("") ,=(""),=("")
0,0,0,0,1170,0,0,=(""),=("") ,=(""),=("")
95,0,0,=(""),=("") ,=(""),=("")
1170,0,0,=(""),=("") ,=(""),=("")
0,0,0,=(""),=("") ,=(""),=("")
1170,0,0,=(""),=("") ,=(""),=("")
0,1170,0,0,=(""),=("") ,=(""),=("")
0,995,0,0,=(""),=("") ,=(""),=("")


Thanks,

Alan

can say that if the cell gets stored in a comma-delimited CSV as follows:

Then Excel will treat it as the text value for the cell.

Correct.

Actually, Excel is pretty aggressive about trying to treat things NOT as
text, if it can get away with it. It manages to strip away one layer of
quote-escaping, and ultimately loads the formula anyway.

I believe you can get the undesired effect you're looking for with more
quoting, but I'm doing some testing before posting, to make sure I don't
screw up yet again.
