is it possible to convert excel file to tab delimited (txt) file with certain
space or character numbering?

for example: Column A consist 5-10 characters in each row. When saving the
excel file using tab delimiter. I want all values on column B start in line
15.

Using the standard excel saveas command it is not possible to do as requested.

But the solution is to replicate the sheet on another sheet with the
formatting,

ie:

[A3]=LEFT(A1,14)&CHAR(9)&REPT(" ",15-LEN(A1))&B1

and then copy and paste special and delete the columns a and b.

the char(9) inserts a tab and then you save as a tab delimited file.
