Hi,
I am trying to create a formatted text file for input into another program. CSV or standard Table output will not work. I need columns at specific places in the file and for them to be right-aligned. The following prints to the screen the way I need it:
PaddedForm[
TableForm[data1,
TableAlignments -> Right,
TableHeadings -> {None, {"Col. 1;", "Col. 2;", "
Col. 3;", "Col. 4;", "Col. 5;"}}], {6, 2}]
I just can't figure out how to write it to a file so that this format is retained. I tried Export and Write but I lose the formatting. Please help before I become despondent and harm myself.
Thanks in advance,
Mcq
