Page Download NOT Working

I do not know what has changed or what I am doing wrong, but I can no longer
download my pages database into a text tab delimited format. It used to be
automatic and know I am not even offered a file format of text tab
delimited, just the TEXT File format. Even though I select TEXT format, it
is download as an HTML file. I used to open my downloaded file in EXCEL and
it allow me to open it as a text tab delimited file.

Has anybody experienced this problem and know what I must change to fix it.

Stewart,
If you have lots of HTML in your fields Excel will assume that the file
is an html file and automatically open it as such. Try opening it in
Wordpad and see if the file displays as tab separated lines or if it is
actually an html file. I don't know how to get Excel to not think that
the file is html when it is actually just text with some html in it.
