Data export to individual files

Hello,
I am looking to T-SQL extract records from a table and have each record
stored in individual .eml files. A query based DTS doesn't let me
specify what extension my files will have AND I'm unsure how to have
each record written to a separate file? Any ideas on how I can pull
this off?
Much appreciated,

A few possibilities:
1. Use OSQL to run the query and pipe the output to the desired file
2. Use xp_cmdshell to issue DOS "ECHO" commands to write the desired file
3. Use a combination of xp_cmdshell and OPENROWSET to create and then
write the desired file
