Question:

Save csv-file with semicolon as delimter for each cell?

Aug 14 '14 at 20:42

Hi, I would like to save my test.csv with a semicolon as field-delimeter.

Currently looks like this:

a,b,c,d,e,

Should look like this:

a;b;c;d;e;

Found nothing within that documentation. Can someone help me out?

The CSV object has a Delimiter property - maybe this will do what you need?

From the ActiveX documentation:

Delimiter As String The character that separates fields in a record. It is a comma by default. If the Delimiter property is not explicitly set, the CSV component will detect the delimiter when loading a CSV. (Semicolons are typically used in locales where the comma is used as a decimal point.)
