write out data into excel

i have few disp graphs vs time (transient solution) for various nodes. I am using the utilities result tab to write out xy data, but it write out each graph (node) as a separate file. Is there a way to write out just one file with all the graphs in the plot? or any better approach

If you are using Utilities > Write XY Curves to File... there should be a button on the form that says "Single File". The default is "Curve Per File".

If you set it to "Single File", you should be able to select all of the XY Curves (so that they're highlighted) and then click Apply.

This should write out a single CSV with a column of your X, and subsequent columns of data from all the graphs.

I do not see any button that says "Single File". I am using 2017. This is what I see

The option to write to a single file was added in Patran 2018. However you should be able to add that functionality to 2017 by using the file found in this SimCompanion article:

can you share the plb file here? I am not able to download the attachment from that reference you asked me to follow. It somehow saves the file (*.html) rather than downloading
