This command is used to force the report to be a CSV (comma separated values ) format file. When added as a command to the top of the script, the report file is then automatically saved to disk with the file extension .CSV
If you have a file association in your Windows Explorer for CSV to Microsoft Excel for example, Excel will automatically be run up on execution of the report using the Test button or when running from within the Report mechanism.
Because the CSV format is specific, there is no need to suffix fields in your script with commas, this is done for you. You can change the required field separation character, usually a comma, using the dialog presented when editing the command. You can make it to use the “tab” character instead by checking the “Use Tab” box.
