I have several projects that need to write structured Textfiles, some with fixed size fields, other delimited by characters.

Is there a .net class that could be used for that?

I know there is a "Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO.TextFieldParser" that is useful for reading textfiles, i am actually searching for a ""Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileIO.TextFieldWriter"
