You could do a standard LIST TO FILE kind of deal. Or you could roll your own. Something like this:

*-- I will assume that we are using the current open table

LPARAMETERS tcOutFile

SET TEXTMERGE TO (tcOutFile)
SET TEXTMERGE ON NOSHOW

LOCAL lnCounter

FOR lnCounter = 1 TO FCOUNT()
	\\<<ALLTRIM(FIELD(lnCounter))>>
	
	IF lnCounter < FCOUNT()
		\\,
	ENDIF
ENDFOR

SCAN
	FOR lnCounter = 1 TO FCOUNT()
		\\<<TRANSFORM(EVALUATE(FIELD(lnCounter)))>>
		
		IF lnCounter < FCOUNT()
			\\,
		ENDIF
	ENDFOR
ENDSCAN

SET TEXTMERGE OFF
SET TEXTMERGE TO
MODI COMM (tcOutFile) NOWAIT

Hope this helps.
