Excel sheet to textfile

Hi,

I would like to export an sheet in excel into a text file.

This is my code:

Code:

---

Sub text()
Dim myFile As String, rng As Range, cellValue As Variant, i As Integer, j As Integer
myFile = "D:\test.txt"
Set rng = Selection
Open myFile For Output As #1
For i = 1 To rng.Rows.Count
    For j = 3 To rng.Columns.Count
    cellValue = rng.Cells(i, j).Value
    If j = rng.Columns.Count Then
    Write #1, cellValue
Else
    Write #1, cellValue,
End If
Next j
Next i
Close #1
End Sub

---

Problem: I need changes in the code so that

1. no selection is nessesery - just take the open sheet, take all the rows and lines with a content ( if no content just go to the next )
2. start in line 1 row 3
3. never export rows 5 to 6 no matter if empty or not
4. write all in a textfile looking like in excel

THX a lot!

2. start in line 1 row 3

What does line 1 row 3 mean?

What does looking like in Excel mean?

Sorry "row" was supposed to be column

Looking like excel: lines and columns in textfile the same like in excel.
Empty lines in excel are supposed to be ignored, so no empry lines in textfile.

THX

You can use .Saveas

I need VBA code.

Code:

---

Dim myFile As String, rng As Range, cellValue As Variant, i As Integer, j As Integer
myFile = "C:\test.txt"
Set rng = Selection
Open myFile For Output As #1
For i = 1 To rng.Rows.Count
    For j = 1 To rng.Columns.Count
    cellValue = rng.Cells(i, j).Value
    If j = rng.Columns.Count Then
    Write #1, cellValue
Else
    Write #1, cellValue,
End If
Next j
Next i
Close #1
End Sub

Does anyone knows how to change this code, so that the selection is not needed?

Instead of Selection the code should start in line 1, column 4 go through each cell of line one until the column is empty and then go to the next line and do the sam, all until there is a first cell in a line with value "STOP"

With code

1. Delete empty rows
2. Delete Rows 5 & 6
3. Delete Column A & B
4. SaveAs text file.
