access thread: problems with date when converting to CSV


Message #1 by "Tim Maher" <tim.maher@s...> on Wed, 12 Mar 2003 14:23:55 +0000
HI,

I have emailed the list before regarding this problem.  

When Export a table to a CSV file all the dates change from dd/mm/yyyy
format to dd/mm/yy format.  I have had problems before so the original
dd/mm/yyyy is in text format (when the dates are Date/Time format the
exported date is wrong : dd/mm/yy hh:mm:ss).  Does anyone now how to
export a table from access 97 to a csv file and keep the date format the
same???

TIA

Tim

In your export specs, under Advanced, check the box for 4 digit year format.
You may also want to check the box for leading zeros whenever it is 1/2/02.
This would change it to 01/02/2002.

HTH,

Beth
