    Exporting part of a worksheet to text file using VBA

    Hi,

    I'm looking for a way to write only part of a worksheet (cells A10:E150, for example) to a text file.

    Any idea?

    Thanks

    Mike

    Select the cells and run the first macro - you can certainly modify this to make it less instrusive....

    Here's a slightly different approach - I recently had to write some text files in UTF-8 format, and found this method the best:

    Re: Exporting part of a worksheet to text file using VBA

    Hi, thanks for all the responses!

    Quick question, some of the cells I'm exporting are blanks, does anyone know how I could replace blanks with quotation marks?

    Thanks again, much appreciated!
