    Saving an MS Execl csv to a txt file


    Ok I am a bit stuck here as I need to save a very large csv file to a txt file that has a certain format for it to be used in another application as an import file, I will attach the sample csv files here

    My sheet will look like this

    And the saved txt file needs to look like this in this format with the first line reflecting the same headings as below.

    Using Microsoft 10 with LibreOffice 5 -- trying to save as .txt file

    You can save the file as a .csv (comma-separated value) file, then rename it to .txt. A .csv file is in fact a text file in which the fields are separated by commas. A tab-separated file would even be better.

    Yes but the save formatting needs to be the same as the sample file screen shot with all the " " and , in the correct position and this is the issue I am having here
