     Yes, I believe that all of the exports that I have written with a
header line (and there have been hundreds of them) all have this structure.
I believe mine date back to at least filePro version 3.  All of them run
just fine this way.  

     I believe that Jeff Harrison's JHExport depends on this format, too.
By the way, JHExport is a great product that has saves me several hours a
month creating new export processing tables...
