Exporting records w/o Returns?

Featured Replies

Is it possible to export records without returns in the text string?

What I want to do is to generate an email "To" field separated by semicolons for inserting into an Outlook (or Eudora) To field. If I can get it into a text file, one copy and paste will address the email. (I don't want to send many emails, only one with a single list of addresses in the To or BCC field.) Or is there a better way to do this (on Windows; AppleScript isn't an option in this case)?

There is only one field to be exported, but all the options I've tried result in a return between each record.

Thanks for any tips,

RD

I just figured out the best way (I think) to do this--use the built in (new w/ v. 7?) "Send email" script step. It's quite slick. Once I figured this out, I put together a complete mail system to send mail to every student in any of my classes (or a combination)--and it took less than a half hour for a novice like myself to script it. 2 global fields for email subject and body and the rest pulls the appropriate fields, etc.

But I'd still be interested to know if there's a way to export text as I first described; not for email, but for any other purpose.
