Saving each worksheet as text data. There are many textt formats that you
can use by doing File - SaveAs and selecting the type of file at the bottom
of the window. Both TXT and CSV are text formats. CSV is each column on the
spreadsheet seperated by a comma.

With saving as Text you loose all the formating and you can only save one
worksheet to one text file.

You can also save the worksheet as a picture which is usful if you want to
show the worksheet in a Power Point Slide presentation.

Hi, I have read the posts about saving an excel file and converting it to
ASCII file but I do not fully understand although it looks simple.
The remit is I have an excel file containing a huge amount of data but it is
not acceptable as it needs to be in ASCII format.
How do I change the Excel file to ASCII successfully?

Many thanks for your advice.
