[AccessD] Exporting to .txt

Sorry, but you don't have "hours" in your SQL, so I'm not sure what
you're trying to do with it.  What happens at the end of numbers like 60
or 70?

Just one more little thing;
There is a field "hours" which when gets transferred to .txt putes . at
the end of numers like 60. or 70. I'd like to avoid it, i change
datatype to text in the table, but result is the same. Should I do
something in the query for it also ?
