      Looks like the problem comes from the separator type not being set after the submission of the first export page.

      This is fixed by changing 'moodle/grade/export/txt/index.php' at line 54:
      from...

      $export = new grade_export_txt($course, $currentgroup, '', false, false, $data->display, $data->decimals);

      to

      $export = new grade_export_txt($course, $currentgroup, '', false, false, $data->display, $data->decimals, $data->separator);

      Go to 'Gradebook -> Export -> Plain text file'
      Select 'tab' as the separator type
      Export your grades
      Check that the exported file uses tabs as separators

      Show
      Go to 'Gradebook -> Export -> Plain text file' Select 'tab' as the separator type Export your grades Check that the exported file uses tabs as separators

      If you attempt to export the grade book as a tab delimited plain text file it will instead export as a comma delimited file.
