You need to do the export from a query and use the format function to
change the date to a string of the correct format.  If you just export
from the table, a date is going to be handled as a date.

I need to export a file to either .scv or .txt format with fixed length.
There are 2 date fields which should be in a mmddyyyy format. I specify
in 'specification' that field should have be in a format MDY, 4 digit
year. leading zeros, no dividers, yet I still get 12/7/2003 type
results... in txt file..
