    looking for Borland Builder hints

    Hello, I'm working on Borland C++ Builder 5. I'd like to export arrays of data during debug to a software to graph them, like excel or matlab, but I can only visualize arrays without be able to "select" in some manner all the text describing the data: I can only select cells text one by one.
    Is there any way/tool/plugin which permits this thing?
    Thanks,
    BrownB

    I've written out results as .csv files before, imported them into excel, then used excel's graph functionality to visualise what's going on.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    Thank you Salem, but how did you get the data in your csv file? By hands? I have more than 1000 points to export, so manual export is not possible...I'm googling and searching in Borland help and menus, but I haven't found yet anything about csv export of any kind of memory area.

    Bye,

    Ooops, I understand now what you said: you exported data by coding this function in you code...much as printf() to debug. Ok, I'm realizing that there's no way to do this with some kind of tool.

    I'm sure there is a way, but the cost of finding out has always been too much for me given the relative simplicity of the alternatives.

    Yeah
    FILE *fp = fopen("results.csv", "w" );
    fprintf( fp, "%d,%d\n", r1, r2 );
    fclose( fp );
