Does anybody know if there is a way to set a universal column in a tab-separated export file? Basically because of the number of fields, there are multiple rows when i export a file. I want to make it so that the first column of each row has a specific number for each record to make data analysis easier. Thanks!

Do you mean the same number for all records? You could place the number in a global field and include the field in the export order.

To me, “specific” suggests something like a line number; think BASIC

If this is the case, the only suggestion I can come up with is: add a number field to your table, include it in your export and serialize it in the found set before each export.

Are you sure? What are you using to view the export file? Make sure that the application that you're viewing it is does not add line breaks.
