I am trying to create a stored procedure to write out to a text file.
I would like it to write a line for each instance of a select
statement. Any help?

Write information Where field1 = String

You can use the BCP utility to output the SELECT statement data to a file:

Or look at SSIS which may be a better environment for the task:

In addition to Plamen's answer: normally you don't write to text files
from SQL at all. You just return data to the client, and the client
would write to the text file. BCP and SSIS that Plamen mentioned are
examples of specialised such clients that are good of extracting lots
of data.
