acformatTXT report output incorrectly displayed in MS WORD or NOTE

S

I'm using MS Access 2000 and designing a reprot that will send it's output to
a file
using:

DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, "Report1", acFormatTXT, "Report1.txt", True

The report output looks good, no strange vertical spacing, etc. The design
view preview is also right on the money. The problem appears to be in MS
Word or Notepad. When I open the report page 1 spills over to the second.
Now if I try to output to acFormatRTF and bring it into MS WORD or
MS WORDPAD it looks great.

The bottom line is... I'm trying to get a report that can be imported into
just
about any viewer by making the report a fixed pitch font, using 80 char.
accross, etc.

Can anyone shed some light on the problem?
