Documentation

Definition

If the flag is set, when the lines are copied, the fields are converted from the internal format to the external format.

This means that:

• The data in the fields are converted according to their type
• The individual fields are separated by tab characters.

Example: If the lines of the source file of a structure correspond to a four character field and a date field,

'_AB20000313' is converted into ' AB<Tab>13.03.2000'
