Is it possible to create a formatted text file from Excel work book?

By stating "formatted", I mean that the output file should be having a
pagewise report header, column headings etc. Like those reports which we
generate using COBOL, Dbase etc.


It *is* provided by a built-in facility. File Page Setup allows the user
to specify multiple line headers and footers (Header/Footer tab in Page
Setup dialog). Print titles allow for column headings (Sheet tab in Page
Setup dialog). Whether it's a good idea to use Excel or any other
spreadsheet to generate such reports is another matter entirely.


Hi Harlan
but the goal was to produce a text file and just saving such a file as *.csv
or *.txt file won't help (not sure though if printing to a file might work).
But I could have misunderstood the OP's requirement in this case and he just
wants a 'nice' formated sheet.
