Creating delimited text files

To create a delimited text file

  1. In your word processor or Microsoft Notepad program, create a new document and type each item, enclosed by quotation marks, on a separate line. For example:

"United States"

"Canada"

"South America"

If you want to include a description of the item, place the description in quotation marks on the same line as the item, separated by a comma as follows:

"United States", "Includes only the 48 contiguous states."

  1. Save the list as a text (.txt) file.
