What kind of text-file did you have in mind. Both CSV and fixed record are special forms of text-files. Even XML is a text-file. Some formats are well-defined and strict - some are not. Is it free-text like a document or something created in Notepad you are thinking of? If it is table oriented both CSV (comma separated values - where comma could be replaced with pretty much anything else than comma) and fixed-record covers most cases.
CSV-files often have delimiters (character) between the columns that is comma , semicolor ; or tab (ASCII / ANSI / ISO / Unicode code number 9 ).
Excel is particularly well-behaved when using CSV-files that have tabs between the columns. They are sometimes also referred to as TSV / Tab delimited.
Even though a file-extension can indicate what the text-file contains it might not be accurate and there are no fixed conventions that everyone sticks to.

Maybe you can use "delimited" or "fixed record"

Thanks for replying to this post. I used delimited but I remember that in table type I have seen txt and csv listed, in the same way Xml, Qvd or other formats are listed. I might be wrong.
