Default Convert Excel to text

In my US English it is

Formatted Text (space delimited) (*.prn)

and is found pretty far down in the choices.

Thanks a lot. For saving do you mean to save as 'tab
delimited' format.if i give column width as a 10 and then
my next column will start from 11th space in the text
file. Correct me if I am wrong

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.

from 1-6 spaces and then column 2 should appear from 11-

13
spaces
