Dtable error Too few quotes

[May Blake]

Hello,

I am running a Dtable command that works effectively but once I add the export option, I get the following error. I cannot figure out for the life of me where the "Too few quotes" is coming from.

too few quotes

Can you reproduce this with a publicly available dataset?

If not, can you show us the log when you add noisily in your [b]export()[/option], e.g. export(mytable.docx, noisily).

I re-run this using a public dataset and everything works just fine. Could it be something with my variables? I don't assume that has anything to do with quotes.

It could if you’re variable labels have double quotes in them.
