Exporting as fixed field text file

I didn't find that option either after a quick look. I am sure the Igor staff has something to say about this, but if all things fail, you always have the option to format the output string yourself and then use fprintf to write formatted lines to a text file.

My first guess is that Save should support that, but doesn't look like it. In that case wfprintf should do the trick.

Thank you very much! fprintf works perfectly. The printed text is right-aligned by default and fits the Fortran format. I did not try wfprintf yet, but I guess it will work fine as well.

The only difference is that wfprintf reads the values from a wave, while for fprintf the values come from single strings / variables. If your data is stored in a wave and you just want to export the full contents without much fuss, then wfprintf may be the way to go.

I will use fprintf to input the header and wfprintf for the data part. Thank you again.
