I need to export data from Access into a text file in a cobol format. &nbsp;This means that the field lengths need to be fixed for the record. &nbsp;Field 1 must start in postition 1, field 2 in position 19, regardless of the amount of data in the field. &nbsp;I've seen the text export wizard in Access, but that wont work, as every record takes three lines. &nbsp;Any ideas?

Fixed Field Length

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.

COBOL (Common Business-Oriented Language) is a programming language with English-like syntax. It is readable but verbose compared to other programming languages. CODASYL (Conference on Data Systems Languages) created COBOL in 1959 based on design work from Grace Hopper. It was standardized in 1968. COBOL is still present in large-scale batch processing and transaction processing where legacy applications are being used, usually in government, financial, and administrative systems.
