Hi all,

I am having troubles to export my results on Mathematica to other
applications (e.g., Microsoft Excel and/or plotting applications).

Traditionally, I would cut a cell (which contains my printed new
results), and paste it onto the next application.  This does not work
now, because on pasting, I get some extra formatting stuff in between my
new numbers.

Example:

In response to the following (generic) lines in Mathematica :

For[xxxxxxxxx
	Print[n,"\t\t\t",b] 
]

I get 2 columns, one for each n and s.  
Suppose my first "results" were  1  and 0.02048.

Cutting and pasting those onto an (blank) ASCII file results with, 

Cell[BoxData[ 
InterpretationBox[ 
RowBox[{"1", "\[InvisibleSpace]", "\<\"\\t\\t\\t\"\>",
"\[InvisibleSpace]", "0.020408163323084798`"}], 
SequenceForm[ 1, "\t\t\t", 0.020408163323084798], 
Editable->False]], "Print"] 

The extra formatting instructions severely interefers with my work on
the next application.


Why is this so?  
What should I do to be able to simply cut and paste again???
