Use Oracles built-in package called utl_file which allows you to read an write to/from text files. In addition, if needed, you could use this in combination with dynamic sql to write a generic routine which allows the files layout to change over time.

Another option is to use Visual C++ and an odbc connection to accomplish this task.
