Hi robin, thank you for the output. It is a db2 query that does an export/select against a few tables and returns a comma separated text file. Here are some of the examples.. no sql plus here Smilie

Code:
testoutput1, testgroup1
test-output2, testgroup2
test-output3 thisisatest, testgroup3
test output4-test, testgroup4

The real and meaningful output that I need is everything after the comma. I need that written to a text file.

mdb-export [-H] [-d delimiter] [-R row_delim] [[-Q] | [-q quote [-X escape]]] [-I] [-D format] database table DESCRIPTION
mdb-export is a utility program distributed with MDB Tools. It produces a CSV (comma separated value) output for the given table. Such output is suitable for importation into databases or spread- sheets. OPTIONS
-H Supress header row -Q Don't wrap text-like fields (text, memo, date) in quotes. If not specified text fiels will be surrounded by " (double quote) char- acters. -d Specify an alternative column delimiter If no delimiter is specified, table names will be delimited by a , (comma) character. -R Specify a row delimiter -I INSERT statements (instead of CSV). You must specify the SQL dialect. -D Set the date format (see strftime(3) for details) -q Use to wrap text-like fields. Default is ". -X Use to escape quoted characters within a field. Default is doubling. -N namespace Prefix identifiers with namespace. NOTES
ENVIRONMENT
