transfer data as text file

[Thedon123]

A user enters data into a form.

i want to export that data as a text file.

So once the user fills the form. he clicks on a button saying export data.

how would i go about converting the data entered into the form to a text file. or even a csv.

check out transfertext in the help files. Maybe that´s what you´re looking for.

Fuga.

that helps but not much. i am trying to transfer the whole form as a text file. rather than one field.

TransferText isn't a one-field operation. You can use it to move an entire table or query to a text file if necessary.

But somehow I don't think that's your real question. What do you want to do with this data once you have the text file? Having that answer might help us a bit more to give you a better answer?

the data will be automaticaaly input into a larger database bot done in access. the database i am creating will be used as an offline entry of data to be exported to a larger database on the system.
