Converting a SQL table into Text file
How to convert a SQL table into Text file? I have a table and I want to extract the values with the field names above to a text file. The query should also allow me to define the starting position of the fields in the text file.

SQL Enterprise manager allows you to export the data into a CSV file. So you could use this to output all the data directly.
Alternatively: 1. Open up the Query Analyzer tool 2. Type Select * FROM tablename or whatever query you need. 3. Then type Ctrl-D to output the data in grid format (this is the default format, so this step is not necessary). 4. Type Ctrl-E to run the query 5. Select the results, then copy and paste into an Excel spreadsheet and save that as CSV.
