Convert Excel to text
make all your text a monospaced font like courier new and set your column
widths to the proper spacing. Then save as a space delimited file (fixed width). Or you could write code to loop through you cells and build the proper output strings. http://support.microsoft.com/support...eio/fileio.asp File Access with Visual Basic® for Applications Regards, Tom Ogilvy "AJ" wrote in message ... How can we convert excel sheet into text format?

Formatted Text (space delimited) (*.prn) and is found pretty far down in the choices. Regards, Tom Ogilvy "AJ" wrote in message ... Thanks a lot.

Convert Excel to text
Tab delimited separates the fields with a tab character. If A1 requires 5 characters, the 6th
character in the file is the tab and the 7th is the 1st character from B1. You don't supply a column width with the tab-delimited format. On Mon, 14 Jul 2003 11:55:21 -0700, "AJ" wrote: Thanks a lot.
