Is there method or a way to create a text file from a rendered report using the
output property?   Is there any other way to create a text file from a rendered
report?

Not really. The problem is that the report engine assumes Windows 
proportional fonts are being used, and so it couldn't generate a text 
file that looked like a report ... the best way to do what you're 
looking for is to use the file object and generate the data the way you 
want to from there.
