Exporting contacts to comma delimited file - missing fields

M

mjh

Sorry if this has been a previous topic.
When exporting contacts to a comma delimited file (outlook 98 - 2003),
the resulting file has missing fields at the end of the record,
if those fields do not contain information. There is not even
commas present with no data, to signify blank fields.

The header record is exported correctly, containing all the fields.
The remaining records contain all fields only if the last exported
field
contains data. If not, the last exported field seems to be the last
field in the record which contains data.

This may not cause a problem for excel or access, but does seem to
cause
problems for 3rd party software which expects the fields to be present,

even if they are blank.

Has anyone ran into this problem, or know of a fix/workaround?

Thanks in advance,

Mitch
