Thanks for the excellent resources, Dave. I see that I'll have to write
the file line-by-line. Not a problem, thanks again for the trick.

If your macro saves the file as .prn (space delimited), then you'll have to do
more.

You can try looking at the way others do it:

Earl Kiosterud's Text Write program:

(or directly: http://www.smokeylake.com/excel/text_write_program.htm)

Hi,

I've written a macro (Excel 2003) to reformat an input file. It's all
going well but the output must be in a space delimited format with only
a SINGLE space between the 2 columns. The problem is that Excel insists
on putting in 5 spaces.

Is there a way to trim the extra spaces down to 1?

Cheers,
