Hello everyone, I don't understand why I cannot use the Copy As menu item and copy a table's contents as plain text and paste directly into a spreadsheet. It works nicely for some tables but not others. Likewise, exporting a numeric table to a text file as "CSV" or "TSV" often gives me the table as a string with the curly list brackets as delimiters rather than commas or tabs (see below). Is there any way to get tables into a spreadsheet easily? Should I be using Do loops instead?
