    Export designated sheet as CSV comma delimited

    Hi y'all,

    I'm trying to export an excel sheet as CSV comma delimited. I've put this code together but I do not get the comma delimitation. Furthermore, some figures contained in the sheet turn into dates in the CSV file. Any ideas? thanks :-)

    Unfortunately not. Sadly the "attach file" is disabled in this forum.

    Click on GO ADVANCED and then scroll down to Manage Attachments to open the upload window.
    let Source = #table({"Question","Thread", "User"},{{"Answered","Mark Solved", "Add Reputation"}}) in Source

    I also assume you have opened the file in notepad to see the format? It is possible it is ok, but if you reopen it in excel it convers certain cell to dates. is this the case?

    Don't open it from Excel.
    Right click on CSV file and open from other program like Notepad.
    CSV is just a Comma Separated Values Text File and when you open it from Exel, it automatically assign to cells.

    Just export csv file.
    Other system shold be able to read it.
    Again, Excel can create csv file, also read it, but not how text editor does.
