I am trying to write to an output file (C:\Arguments.txt) and am gettin
nothing in the file. The VBA subroutine work just fine, and it create
my file, but when I look at it through Notepad, I see nothing. I clos
the file, but when I minimize the Access application and try to delet
the output file, I get a message saying that it is still in use. Do
need to do anything besides close the file ? I am running Access 2000

Cwatchowski,

I assume you are using TransferText? Data based on a Query? Do you
have an Export Specification defined? Sounds like you are using code,
and not using a macro? What event is the procedure running on?
