Can I extract BFP Progress Reports into a data friendly format (Excel)?
BFP provides detailed progress reports after each session. It seems that these can be printed using "screen capture" or "print screen" techniques.
But I have not yet found a way to create a summary report that shows progress in each exercise on a day-by-day basis in a form that is not strictly graphical. Rather, I'm looking for a way to download (or extract directly from BFP) that information into a data friendly format, such as an Excel spreadsheet or even simply CSV text file.
That way I can perform my own "offline" analysis and interpretation of these data. Without this capability, the results seem too distant and can't be easily reviewed without launching BFP. Even then, It's not clear how to simply view prior results without initiating a new training station.
Is there some way to do this?.

Inappropriate?In the Windows version of BFF, each stimulus and response is logged to a .txt file located in the directory for that exercise. I let Excel 2007 format this file which comes complete with headings. High Low assessments are stored in the same directory where the user_.xml file is stored under names starting with HLAdata.
The .xml file for each exercise also contains information which I look at using the free Microsoft XML Notepad 2007.

Inappropriate?Thanks, Alan
However, this only partially answers my question. I am looking for summaries similar to what is available at the end of each exercise and each session. You have provided a way to access the raw data from which the summaries are produced but it is not clear how to produce such summaries from these data.
Can you provide any spreadsheets containing formulas or VBA code that actually produce daily and cumulative summary reports?

it would be nice if the BFP had either an export option or there is another Posit Science Program called Insight that does allow you not only print but at least view?
