@nutsch's answer is perfectly fine and should work 99.9% of the time. In the rare occasion that FSO is not available, here's a version that doesn't have a dependency. As is, it does require that the source worksheet doesn't have any blank rows in the content section.

Sub SaveRowsAsCSV()

Dim wb As Excel.Workbook, wbNew As Excel.Workbook
Dim wsSource As Excel.Worksheet, wsTemp As Excel.Worksheet
Dim r As Long, c As Long

    Set wsSource = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("worksheet")

    Application.DisplayAlerts = False 'will overwrite existing files without asking

    r = 1
    Do Until Len(Trim(wsSource.Cells(r, 1).Value)) = 0
        ThisWorkbook.Worksheets.Add ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(1)
        Set wsTemp = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(1)

        For c = 2 To 7
            wsTemp.Cells((c - 1) * 2 - 1, 1).Value = wsSource.Cells(r, c).Value
        Next c

        wsTemp.Move
        Set wbNew = ActiveWorkbook
        Set wsTemp = wbNew.Worksheets(1)
        'wbNew.SaveAs wsSource.Cells(r, 1).Value & ".csv", xlCSV 'old way
        wbNew.SaveAs "textfile" & r & ".csv", xlCSV 'new way
        'you can try other file formats listed at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/aa194915(v=office.10).aspx
        wbNew.Close
        ThisWorkbook.Activate
        r = r + 1
    Loop

    Application.DisplayAlerts = True

End Sub
