Default Exporting to ASCII Txt Doc without Tabs

This is an easy one that I can't remember how to do. How do you save
so that there arent any tabs between columns?

What do you want to use to separate the columns? To use commas, save as
CSV. To separate by spaces, save as space delimited text (.prn).

Follow David's advice - in the Save As dialog look for Formatted text (space
delimited)
best wishes

Durst,

Try the Text Write Program at www.smokeylake.com/excel. You can specify any character, or
no character, for the field delimiter. It's interactive -- you don't have to deal with any
code.

Some folks prefer bottom-posting.
But if you bottom-post to a reply that's
already top-posted, the thread gets messy.
