Excel file conversion

Guest

Is there a way around the Excel spreadsheet conversion to formatted file
format (space delimited) limitation of only 240 characters per row of cells?
I need to get a row of cells of over 700 characters in possible length to
convert to a single formatted text space delimited record. Is there any
offline file conversion program that will do this form me if Excel save as
file converion will not>

Maybe you could write your own exporting program that would behave exactly the
way you want:

Here are three sites that you could steal some code from:

Earl Kiosterud's Text Write program:
www.smokeylake.com/excel
(or directly: http://www.smokeylake.com/excel/text_write_program.htm)

Chip Pearson's:
http://www.cpearson.com/excel/imptext.htm

J.E. McGimpsey's:
http://www.mcgimpsey.com/excel/textfiles.html

(or maybe you could build your own formula and copy|paste into Notepad, then
save from there.)
