I'm a little surprised that no one has suggested the SAS Wizard for
exporting datasets. It can be started from menu bar - file/export
or by issuing command DEXPORT. It doesn't need variables to be selected.

One of the output formats available is CSV, another, TAB delimited.
When SAS/Access products have been licensed, forther formats are
offerred.

Does this not meet the needs of Pete St. Onge, who has to put some
thesis files into non-SAS format ?
