That is easily done. How did you want to delimit the cell values in the text file, by tab character? I would not recommend the space character as you listed.

Add the reference as commented. You can quickly see the contents of the file by pressing Enter key at the end of the string added to the Immediate window after you play it from that sheet.
Of course add this to a Module and change the path in the variable s as needed.
Sub Test_StrToTXTFile()
Dim r As Range, c As Range, s As String
For Each c In Range("A1", Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
With c
s = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\" & .Offset(0, 1).Value2 & ".txt"
Set r = Intersect(Rows(.Row).EntireRow, ActiveSheet.UsedRange)
StrToTXTFile s, Join(WorksheetFunction.Transpose(WorksheetFunction.Transpose(r)), " ")
Debug.Print "Shell ""cmd /c " & s & """" & ", vbNormalFocus"
End With
Next c
End Sub
Sub StrToTXTFile(filePath As String, str As String)
Dim hFile As Integer
If Dir(GetFolderName(filePath), vbDirectory) = "" Then
MsgBox filePath, vbCritical, "Missing Folder"
Exit Sub
End If
hFile = FreeFile
Open filePath For Output As #hFile
If str <> "" Then Print #hFile, str
Close hFile
End Sub
