You can use the TransferText method of DoCmd - as in:

DoCmd.TransferText [transfertype][, specificationname], tablename, filename[, hasfieldnames][, HTMLtablename]

by using a series of these DoCmd.TransferText commands you should be able to write a filter which will direct the data where you want.
