[Download-List] header format

[Bessler, Marc]

Hi Vicky,
 
Try HEADING LITERAL "MDL" @SYSTEM.RETURN.CODE @DATE LITERAL '|' LITERAL
'315' 
 
We use pipes for the Harris transfer. In your case, not sure what the
correct syntax for the [tab] is. 
 
 
Also, on an unrelated note, we are Harris clients as well (print and
online directory) and I have done a bunch of data transfers with them so
if you need help on that end, give me a buzz.

Download listers,

My apologies for re-posting a question from yesterday, but I'm in a bit
of a bind and hoping that someone might be able to guide me in the right
direction.  I have no IT support on this project and a deadline quickly
approaching.  Please note my heading quandary below.

Many thanks,
Vicky

Good morning,

I'm new to the list and have checked the archives for a solution to my 
header problem, but can't find exactly what I need.  We recently went 
from Download 6.0 to 7.13 and there are many features with which I'm not

yet familiar.

I am trying to produce a header for Harris Publishing  that has a 
combination of literal and system commands.  Here is what I'm looking 
for:  LITERAL -Org code, @SYSTEM.RETURN.CODE -record count, @DATE 
-mm/dd/yyyy, [tab], LITERAL -315 for a tab delimited file.

Desired header output: MDL,15,03/09/2006,[tab],315

The file detail will include 2 columns of information: a delete code and

an ID number.

Advice from the experts would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Vicky
