You have many options:
List off fields field1,field2,field3 to file yourfile.txt && Check the Set Heading On/Off command
List off fields field1+field2+field3 to file yourfile.txt && Check the Set Heading On/Off command
Copy to yourfile.txt fields field1,field2,field3 delimited
Just to name a few of the zillions of options VFP give you
Personally I would create a small program, and use Scan-Endscan in combination with Text-Endtext
