Hi all, I would say from the very beginning that I am not an expert in the VBA code...
that's why I come with the request to help me with an answer to a problem

So my problem is:
1. I want to export a table to a text file...till now is simple (I also give a google search after a vba code model)
2. now comes the complicated part...the table exported in txt format must have the following configuration<code>:

(pl:cell-value 1 "B" "Test 1")</code>
<code>(pl:cell-value 1 "C" "OK 1")</code>
<code>(pl:cell-value 2 "B" "Test 2")
</code><code><code>(pl:cell-value 2 "C" "OK 2")</code></code>
<code>(pl:cell-value 3 "B" "Test 3")
</code>
<code><code>(pl:cell-value 3 "C" "OK 3")</code></code>
<code></code>
<code><code>
1 - represent Row</code>
</code><code>
B
- represent Column </code><code><code></code></code><code>
Test 1
- represent CellValue on B1 </code><code><code></code></code><code>
(pl:cell-value "" )- represent un specific text
</code>
<code></code><code></code><code>The range of table is B1:C3</code><code>
</code>
<code>
Thank you for your time to my problem </code><code></code>

This macro should do what you want, simply replace what I have highlighted in red with the full path, filename and extension for the text file you want to write the output to.
Code:
[table="width: 500"]
[tr]
	[td]Sub TableToText()
  Dim N As Long, R As Long, C As Long, LastRow As Long, FF As Long, Result As String
  LastRow = Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row
  For R = 1 To LastRow
    For C = 2 To 3
      N = N + 1
      Result = Result & vbCrLf & "(pl:cell-value " & R & " """ & Mid("BC", C - 1, 1) & """ """ & Cells(R, C).Value & """)"
    Next
  Next
  FF = FreeFile
  Open "YourPathAndFilename" For Output As [URL=https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=FF]#FF[/URL] 
    Print [URL=https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=FF]#FF[/URL] , Result
  Close [URL=https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=FF]#FF[/URL] 
End Sub[/td]
[/tr]
[/table]
