Quote Output fields in output tool not working or do I misunderstand its purpose?

Archaeopteryx
10 - Fireball

Hi,

I have selected that output fields get quotes, but the output does not have the quotes added. Am I misunderstanding what this attribute does? I'm assuming that my output would receive double quotes around it all.

 

Thanks,

Chris

Hello @Archaeopteryx ,

 

When you select the file to get quotes you will get them around each field as in this example:

 

"Field1","Field2","Field3"
"hasta","la","vista"

 

What is your goal? I may be able to help you

It worked when I set a different delimiter. If I left it as comma separated values, the quotes would not insert. I set it to pipe delimited values, then the quotes inserted. 

 

Thank you,

Chris
