Examples

Dim installedReleases
installedReleases = ReleaseEnvServer.GetInstalledReleases

    Dim i,j
    
    For i = 0 To UBound(arrResults,1)
        For j = 0 To UBound(arrResults,2)
            str = str & """" & arrResults(i, j) & """" & ","

        str = str & vbCrLf
    Next

    Call WriteTextToFile(textFile, str)
End Sub

The resulting textfile:

   "COM_VERSION","SDD_HOME","SDD_PLATFORM","SDD_VERSION", 
   "9","C:\MentorGraphics\EEVX.1\SDD_HOME","win32","EEVX.1",
