need help to understand (txt, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, delimiter is '|', msq);

[#1]

Hi all,

I have to work with a qv-skript and I found that expression:

store myTable into 'myTbel.csv' (txt, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, delimiter is '|', msq);

If I understood it correct it means, that my csv-file is coded in 1252 and thats different to UTF-8, isn't it?!

But the Help of QV says:

A QVD or a CSV file can be created by a store statement in the script. The statement will create an explicitly named QVD or CSV file. The statement can only export fields from one logical table. The text values are exported to the CSV file in UTF-8 format.

Now I'm not sure what I have misunderstood.

Could anybody explain me that?!

Best regards

Philipp

The codepage is nnnn and embedded labels don't do anything if you use the store command. These format instructions are simply ignored.

If I understand correctly, nothing changed except the delimiter?

That qualifier is equivalent to (txt, delimiter is '|');

The other statements are all ignored and have no effect in the output. They are only meaningful in a LOAD statement.

Ok, thank you so much. Now I understand!
