<P>If double quotes are not suppose to be in your data. How about the </P>
<P>people who wrote your system cleaning up the data and preventing "</P>
<P>from being entered?</P>
<P>--------------------------</P>
<P>A portable subfile has two physical files a mini-dictionary and a data file. Quiz</P>
<P>creates these automatically when you use the portable option.</P>
<P>You can write your data to a portable subfile. ( Note:&nbsp;A native subfile will cause you</P>
<P>problems because numbers and date could have a character equivalence of ". )</P>
<P>Then use a text editor to change the " to a space in the data file.</P>
<P>&nbsp;( note: there must be a one to one substitution. Otherwise the data alignment</P>
<P>&nbsp; will &nbsp;be off. ) </P>
<P>Then you can use the new subfile to make your extract or as John suggests </P>
<P>load it directly into Progress.</P>
<P>If you are have QEDIT check Wilbert's e-mail.</P>
