1. Use [code] code tags [\code]. It keeps posts clean, easy-to-read, and maintains VBA formatting.
2. If you are happy with a solution to your problem, mark the thread as [SOLVED] using the tools at the top.
yes, different text file for each group of data in rows separated by empty cells.
try this code..
Step: open the file & press Alt+F11 and run the Macro it will ask you to select the range then select the range which range u want to export to text ok.
hope this willl work
Thanks Naveed,
thanks for your help. but the problem is that I have a huge chunk of data (like 29,000 rows) and the row groups are divided in 10, 100 or 200 set. So each time to export text file, I've to select the whole batch, which is tedious. Instead, I was looking for a vba that automates the whole process.
Basically what it will do is: For example if my data is in Column A, it will start selecting starting from A1 until it finds empty cell and stops selecting then it exports the selected data to text file and renames the text file based on the number that is on the adjacent column (see example.xlsx) and then starts selecting the next column that's below the empty column and selects rows until it finds empty cell again, exports to txt, renames it and does the whole process again until last row.
ohh ok ok i will provide you updated file tonight . i understand the pain
This should do it..
Nice that your groups of data is separated by a blank row allowing for the use of .Areas..
Change the filepath in this line to suit..

Apo, you just sent me awesomeness in macro enabled workbookI don't know how to thank you enough. Here, take some reputations.
No worries.. glad it helped..
For your info.. in regards to this solution (if you want to know why/how)...
Take a look at :Basically what it will do is: For example if my data is in Column A, it will start selecting starting from A1 until it finds empty cell and stops selecting then it exports the selected data to text file and renames the text file based on the number that is on the adjacent column (see example.xlsx) and then starts selecting the next column that's below the empty column and selects rows until it finds empty cell again, exports to txt, renames it and does the whole process again until last row.
.Areas
Offset
Scripting.FileSystemObject
Combine those 3 things.. (plus a beer or x).. and you get what you got..
