And whats wrong about WRITEPRN ??

Of course you would have to use it after you created your table.

    Hello Suresh,

    somewhere on this website there is a compendium of neat little programs. It is called "Useful extra components". From that sheet I've got this little helper (see attached file) that writes out data to a text file only on demand.

    Hope this helps

      Yes i can use WRITEPRN..

      But the text file format will be as shown

      // Datafile written by Mathcad
      // 05/12/14 10:37:22

      .MATRIX 0 0 8 3
      "FileName" "abc.prt" "STRING" "DrawingName" "abc.drw" "STRING" "Height" 80.56

      Finally I am creating a vb.net application with good UI, which takes file path as input and writes all parameters to text file as needed. In this case i need to list all the parameters names to get its values

      I am not sure from your description what you think you need. Is the problem the import in Mathcad or the export?

      In this case i need to list all the parameters names to get its values

      As far as i know there is no way to export Mathcad's variable names.

      You can cheat by using the MathRegion XML export API in VBscript. This will, with a little care show you all the defined variables, the maths expressions, and results. You have to decode the XML though.

      At the moment I'm doing it for a file compare function but it's not finished yet.

      Take a look at this old thread for some various ways of saving tables as text files:
