Sample code

Open "C:myfile.txt" For Output As #1 Len = 120
record = "Message1"
Write #1, record
record = "Message2"
Write #1, record

Is there a way of not having quotation marks in the file?

Do you hate GETPIVOTDATA?
Prevent GETPIVOTDATA. Select inside a PivotTable. In the Analyze tab of the ribbon, open the dropown next to Options and turn it off
Try the 'print' command instead of the 'write' command. Also, it's best to close your file.

Sub Print_Test()
Dim record As String
Open "C:myfile.txt" For Output As #1
record = "Message1"
Print #1, record
record = "Message2"
Print #1, record
Close #1
End Sub

Thank you. Twenty years and four months later, this is the answer and that still works.
