    In Excel choose file -> Save As
    The just choose the tabbed (*.txt) or the CSV format. Both are ASCII exports. The same functionality can be controlled from VB. In VB you'll have to set a reference to the Excel object library and make an Excel.Applicatio object. Just record a macro in Excel and look at the code for the export.

    hope this helps,
    Rick
