Hi,

Copy the table and paste it in Excel

In excel u save it in CSV format.

If u open the CSV file in notepad, it will be comma separated and ur goal is acheived.

<b>Hi,

I think there is no FM to convert word file to text file... Why don't you convert it manually (File->Save as->in save as type give 'Plain Text' ) and then use the file.
