Hi all,
Yesterday i've tried this command:
DoCmd.TransferText acExportDelim, "Comma_SEP", "myquery", "D:\Temp\Temp.txt"
And it gave me an Error that can't find "D:\Temp\Temp.txt"
This file exists ant i've supposed that should be replaced by new one!
But the transfer was'nt executed!
I've tried using Macro, but the same pb appears!
This is not urgent, coz i've found a solution! Just like a bug in Access!

Hey Vladi
If you're D:\ drive is a peripheral drive like CD drive. It may not be able to write to it directly.

Hi Mary,
Sure that my HDD is divided to C and D partitions :)

Is the file locked elsewhere.
Perhaps you had it open in another application at the time?
Otherwise I don't know.

Try changing the filename and see will it create a new file?

Unfortunately no! It isn't locked... And sometimes it isn't created yet! :(

This gives the same pb!
I know that this kind of functions are null... I've right to develop my own way to export csv!
:)
Don't worry more about it... This is no more as problem for me... I've solved it! But wanted to note it like a bug in Access!
Thanks you both!

Hi,
Could you tell us how you solved it please?
I have a similar problem. Access db converted from 97 to 2003.
Now macro falls over with 3027 error on TransferText command.
However, can manually export with no problem!
I think it is a bug too....
OK, thanks, I've looked and can't see it there so I guess it is not a recognized bug except by me and Vlady....

Sometimes, things can be confusing and don't work the way you expect them to. This doesn't necessarily mean they're a bug. That site can give more information about gotchas as well as just the bugs.
Thanks, I've bookmarked that page for future reference.
Further investigation elsewhere has led me to the solution for my problem (though maybe not Valdy's problem). I was using a .FIL file extension (legacy reasons) whereas from 2000 onwards it expects "valid" file extensions. Changed it to .TXT and it worked a treat!

Yeah, that's a bit naff I know.
I normally use the Name statement afterwards to rename it to what I need (With On Error etc).
SOLVED: I had the same issue. In my case the Export Spec was invalid. I'd created it when exporting a table but then used it on a query (slightly different fields). As soon as I recreate the export spec it work as expected.
instead of a file, create the specification in the import wizard and save it as a name which you will then call from the specificationame in your docmd.transfertext call
