Automate "export XYZ" file

Hi folks.
I have about 30 parts that need to be run which equates to about 80 measurement points per part. Design have said that they want the resultts in XYZ format so after each part had been run I manually export the data to a XYZ file.
Is there anyway to code this into the program?

Thanks,.
Virgil.

Just what are they planning to do with the data? When you say export the data in a XYZ format what I am thinking is some format that can be imported into another CMM or CAD program but that doesn't make sense to me with that number of parts so now I am thinking that you mean something that can be imported into excell, more like a comma seperated file with the XYZ output. For something like that there are many scripts available and that is how I do it. I posted a script in the code section that will do that output for you but once you are done you will have to do a lot of work in excel to get the data formatted in a useable form with that script.
