[UK-CONTEST] Excel to Cabrillo (text) file - help pse?

[Nigel G3TXF]

Hullo Chris,

Could you (or anyone else on the UK Contest Reflector) pse help me to export 
an Excel file into a "Cabrillo compatible text-file"?

I have been trying to do this with Word's Mail-Merge, but Mail-Merge gives 
you separate file for each line entry, and what I need is all the entries 
from the log in one flat text file.

I realise that this is easy enough for those that know how - but I don't!

I have all my DX-Trip Logs in Access and now want to up-load them to LoTW. 
Exporting from Access in Excel is no problem, but getting from Excel into a 
Cabrillo-style flat text file is where I need help!

73 - Nigel G3TXF
