Is there a way to out put data from Excel into Text with column
oriented data format using VBA? For example, i have 50 rows and 8
columns and i need to write data in cell A to write at the 1st position
in the text file. Data from cell B to write at the 16th position in the
text file, etc. I know that we can set this up from Access db by
recordset, but how do we do this in VBA or VB?

Thank you for any help.

Do you mean column A, then column B, rather than cell A and Cell B

You should be able to adapt this code from Chip Pearson's site to do that:

Tom,
Thanks for trying to help.
Yes, column A, then column B, rather than cell A and Cell B. For
example if i want the data to be write at the position 91st in the text
file, i need to set this data from excel where cell CM is?
thanks again.
