if the string is in a text file or another table/query it's easy, otherwise it can't be done
declare @chvCommand varchar(255)
Set @chvCommand = 'bcp databasename..tab1 In \\PCName\ShareName\Textfil e.txt -c -SSQLServerName -Usa -P -t,'
Exec master..xp_cmdshell @chvCommand
for further help with BCP just look in the Books Online helpfile - not the normal transact-sql help file
let me know if you need more help
