Everytime i export a calculated field the result inside the text file is but into " marks.

Example:

Table like this

row1: A X  
row2: B Z  
row3: C Q  
row4: D J

would look like this if exported:

A;X  
B;Z  
C;Q  
D;J

But if i use a calculation field..

row1: calc1= (Field1 + Field2)  
row2: calc2= (Field1 + Field2)  
row3: calc3= (Field1 + Field2)

the export file looks like this:

“A;X  
B;Z  
C;Q  
D;J”

Is there any way to turn off the " qoutes ?

You can specify the qualifier for all the fields, a calculation is not handled in another way. (so use qualifier “none” to skip the quotes)
