Hello, I was wondering if it were possible to export a series of highlighted and copied addresses into Excel or a spreadsheet program?

It'd be really nice top keep the same format of "Active/Desc/Address/Type/Value" when it gets pasted into Excel. I was wondering about ways to do this and came up with:

1) Can Excel be programmed to read the constant-XML that CE produces, so it will automatically parse it and organize it when it gets pasted?

2) Using Powershell or something with Regex to parse out the sections into a CSV or list.

3) Using Lua directly through CE -- Maybe writeToClipboard?

Thanks!

You could just use lua to create a comma separated value file which Excel and Libreoffice Calc can load. And I'd go with lua, you can even add a menu item that runs the export function.

I think the easiest way for what I need is to just copy-paste chunks of my CT table and paste them into Excel 'cause it has an XML-parsing system.

I had used writeToClipboard, but it capped out at 200 entries. I also did something with a Lua script that wrote a CSV, but i couldn't figure out how to format it.

Anyway, thanks.

It's just "data 1,data 2,data 3\r\n", it's a simple format.
