In my Access database i arranged an export of a datatable to a textfile.
I forgot to specify that the first row in the textfile had to be reserved for the fieldnames. Now i want to fix that, but by no mean i can find out how to do that. i first tried the following :
Clicking on the saved exportspecification button, gave me the name of the specification and the full path and name of the target textfile. But this doesn't give me any possibility to fix what i previously mentioned.
After that i tried the following method :
I rightclicked again on the table that i like to export as a textfile. After selecting Export and textfile i choosed the same path and name for the targetfile. This resulted as exspected in a message telling me that this file already exists, asking me if i'm intend to replace this file . I repllied with Yes, and then i got in the wizard where i checked the box "first line fieldnames".Then i leaved the wizard. Saving the export steps with the same name seems to be impossible, reason why i entered another name for the specification.
After that i adapted my code, by changing the specificationname to the new name. However,running the code resulted in the message: the exportspecification doesn't exists,. the import or export by mean of this specification isn't possible. When i check the button,saved exportspecification, i see the new name i entered. Why the message that the exportspecification doesn't exists? What to do to get the export fixed?
 
save a file manually, select advanced tab - pick your spec, edit it, and save it.
 
Thanks for the help. However, i do not quiet understand how to get it done.
The table i want to export resides in the navigationpane. how can i manually save this datatable in another folder ?
