I see a few problems here.  In this case your
fieldname and fieldlen functions should read as
follows:
fieldname(-,rr)
fieldlen(-,rr)

Also, you should not be closing the export within your
loop.  Close it after all of your exporting has been
completed (before the "end").  Also, you missed the
gosub statement before "saverec", and you should not
have the export file name in quotes.

Good Luck!
