col b col c col d


Black-Scholes Directly in a Excel Sheet

Risk-free rate r 0.08
Volatility v 0.3


d1 -0.215
d2 -0.365


European call value 2.527
European put value 5.240


here is code to write this table to a txt file:


Sub writetabletotxtfile()
Dim ExpRng As Range
Dim ff As Integer
Set ExpRng = Range("worksheet_to_text")
'Set ExpRng = ActiveCell.CurrentRegion
FirstCol = ExpRng.Columns(1).Column
LastCol = FirstCol + ExpRng.Columns.Count
FirstRow = ExpRng.Rows(1).Row
LastRow = FirstRow + ExpRng.Rows.Count


ff = FreeFile()


Open "C:\Documents and Settings\xyz\Desktop\tabletote­xtfile.txt" For
Output As ff
Print #ff, ExpRng.AddressLocal()
Print #ff, ExpRng.AddressLocal(RowAbsolut­e:=False,
columnabsolute:=False)


For r = FirstRow To LastRow
For c = FirstCol To LastCol
vdata = ExpRng.Cells(r, c).Text
If c <> LastCol Then
Print #ff, vdata; Chr(44);
Else
Print #ff, vdata
End If
Next c
Next r
Close ff


End Sub

Ok, I see how I goofed and have revised code ro read as follows:
a range name of the excel table is defined as "worksheet_to_text"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sub writetabletotxtfile()
Dim ExpRng As Range
Dim ff As Integer
Set ExpRng = Range("worksheet_to_text")
Firstcol = ExpRng.Columns(1).Column
LastCol = Firstcol + ExpRng.Columns.Count
FirstRow = ExpRng.Rows(1).Row
LastRow = FirstRow + ExpRng.Rows.Count

ff = FreeFile()

Open "C:\Documents and Settings\XYZ\Desktop\tabletotextfile.txt" For
Output As ff
Print #ff, ExpRng.AddressLocal()
Print #ff, ExpRng.AddressLocal(RowAbsolute:=False,
columnabsolute:=False)

For r = FirstRow To LastRow
For c = Firstcol To LastCol
Print #ff, Cells(r, c);
Next c
Print #ff, 'blank line
Next r
Close ff
End Sub
