I have a query that I need to export in a fixed-width text file (.txt or .csv).
I tried to use the "transferText" command.
I see I need to specify a "Specification Name" and how no idea what this is (is this a file,a table or ???).
I looked for some time now but couldn't find any help.
My version of Access - 2000 is a bit buggy and I am unable to import/export by the wizzard.
I suppose I can create this (specification or shema.ini) manually - if only I new how it should look like etc...
Many thanks,
 
Specification Name is the type you transfer

From Help file..
AcTextTransferType can be one of these AcTextTransferType constants.
acExportDelim

acImportFixed
acImportHTML

acLinkFixed

See more at topic "TransferText Method" in VBA help file.

The way you build a specification (import or export) is through the wizard. Sorry, time for you to get some service packs or otherwise reinstall Access/Windows.

It isn't worth the pain of figuring out how to manually build a specification.
