Thanks for the information.
But I probably may not be able to use both suggestions because of specific
requirement -
1. I need to create an interface file with ascii characters, and due to cost
constraint, I cannot afford writing another read utility for IXF files
(though, I think I will still have a look on the IXF file to see if there is
any surprise, in a good way).
2. I must use export due to codepage requirements, the clp does not quite
handle codepage specifications.
Thanks.

You can export to type IXF which doesn't use delimiters. Of course; you
will have to write a read utility to read the data.
As an alternative; you can use the "-x" clp option to write output
without headers. This will expand all char type columns to their maximum
length, make all defined data types an apropriate fixed length, insert a
single space between columns, and write the whole smash to your output.
db2 -x "select * from t1" >t1.out
The above command will do what you want and write the output to t1.out.
Read the "command reference" manual for additional details about options
for the "db2"command. Other options exist that can route output to a file.

I wonder if there is any way to specify in UDB for Windows version 7 so
that in the DEL Export file, there is no double quote (i.e. ") nor any
character strings surrounding the columns of the exported data.
Any information is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
