Now I want to export the file to an ascii buffer/file where show the content as a table. I want to omit certain p lines. So I would like to have something like this where I would like to show only certain columns. val p1 p14 ---------------------------------- item 1 something bla item n hm more more bla How do I achieve this? I see basically two possibilities like follows: 1. write my own special exporter 2. write an external program which does it I guess 1. makes much sense. In this case I like to know if there is a tutorial showing how to do my own exporter or where to find specific documentation how to do this? Perhaps there is something very simple I do not even think of? Any hints appreciated. -- Thanks a lot in advance, Manfred
