How do I export only the signal and retention time from multiple samples as a .csv or .xcls file?

Hello,

I have added tags to this post to increase visibility. 

Unfortunately, what you are asking for would require a custom macro. If you were only interested in exporting retention times to a .xls file, then this could easily be done through an intelligent report template. Exporting the signal is a different story. This can only be done through the File>Export File>CSV File... menu items. 

I am not seeing any macros in the user contributed library that would automate this function, so a custom macro would need to be developed to accomplish this. If you are interested, you can contact your local Agilent support (https://www.agilent.com/en-us/contact-us/page ) and request a quote. 

Hi awiteof,

Check out the link.  I wrote a macro to export all signals.

Glad to hear it.  Let me know if there are any problems that arise.

Did you understand the conversation on the original thread.  I added (LoadFile dadatapath$ + dadatafile$) at the beginning because the original poster was capturing signals and not using them in any reports so I had to first reload all the signals and then export them.  You could remove that line if all the signals you are capturing have been added to the Signal Details section.

Thank you Tim! Before you responded we were trying to implement a macro on our own, with limited success. We tried yours and it worked perfectly on the first try! We all very much appreciate your response! You have made a lot of grad students/techs very happy. Have a good week.
