There are several alternatives that give you complete control over every byte transferred, including low-level file-functions. A solution that involves relatively litte code would go something like this:
erase outputfile.txt
scan
StrToFile(alltrim(MyField) + chr(13) + chr(10), "outputfile.txt", .T.)
