Thanks for your reply!
I am scared to mention that I am totally new to VBA coding. Thus I tried
coping and pasting your code into code view. But once when I press ctrl+F8 it
high lights fswrite of
Set fswrite = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
I am sory that I don't understand how to go ahead! I seek your assistance
further.
Thanks.
Look forward for a fast reply!

I need to know the way of generating a text file from data availbabe in an
Excel spreadsheet either using a Macro or a Script!

Asume if I have some data in few cells such as C5, C6 and C7
then if I have a simple formula like Sum in another cell like C8 to get the
total of the above mentioned cells. How do I display the values in those
cells in a text file generated by a macro or script?

Please be kind enough to reply me if you know this!
Thanks a lot!
