printing comma delimeted file from vectors [message #82903]

I have the following vectors (Date, time, rhie, cirrusp) each of the form FLOAT = Array[1, 16595]. The code below puts all the data in one single column (and no commas) instead of 4 comma delimited columns. In the past this has worked for me. Can somebody help with correcting the syntax to produce the 4 comma delimited columns.

openw, lun, opath+dir+'_kramer4.txt', /get_lun
printf, lun, 'Date, time, rhie, cirrusp'
printf, lun, date,',',time,',',rhie,',',cirrusp
free_lun, lun

Take a peak at

http://www.idlcoyote.com/tips/csv_file.html

You'd have to make a 4xn array like so:

IDL> data = [date, time, rhie, cirrusp]

but then you should be directly apply the concepts from the link.
