    Cell export to Text File?

    Is it possible to export information in cells to a text file?
    Where each cell would be a line in the file?

    Would it be possible to make a button do this if it is at all possible?

    Try saving as filetype CSV.

    Yes that is the file type I can use, and I know I can save a sheet as csv
    ..txt file.

    But I guess i wasn't clear with my question.

    Is it possible to take click on a button and export or write to a .txt file
    without using "save as" so that you can continue to work in the original
    file?

    Yes.

    Maybe you can glean something from these examples:

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