Question

I have a ‘accdb’ file and it has some queries.

Now I want use the query’s output to be redirected to a text file and each of the fields are delimited by tabs.

I might have to do this multiple times over the course of the month, so I would like a button and on-clicking it it takes the queries 1 by 1 and create a new file for every query. How can I do this?

BTW the 1st row would be the field names.

Here is the code, first you have to create specification like here and replace name YourName with it’s name and Query1 with your query name:

DoCmd.TransferText TransferType:=acExportFixed, _
SpecificationName:="YourName", _
TableNAme:="Query1", _
FileName:="d:\test.txt", _
HasFieldNames:=-1
