Subj:   Re: Column titles and titledashes should not appear in the export file.
 
From:   Geoffrey Rommel



  My task is getting an ascii datafile with just the values of one column of a table without the column titles and titledashes from the table.  


This seems to work:

.set titledashes off
.set pagelength 2000
.export report file=goober;
select your_column...;


Of course, this redirects the output to a separate file, but that's no biggie, right?


  I want to use these values as parameters for a variable in a shell script's "for loop".  


bteq < .set titledashes off
.set pagelength 2000
.export report file=goober;
select your_column...;
.quit
ZZ

for NAME in `cat goober`
do
# whatever you wish to do
done
