Exporting target length data
Target length values can be exported from a target length variable to a comma-separated values file (*.targetlength.csv).
To export target lengths for an echogram:
- On the Echogram menu, point to Export, and then click Target lengths to CSV.
- On the export dialog box, specify the Export options.
- Click Export...
To export target lengths for a selection:
- Make a selection using any selection tool.
- On the right-click on the selection, point to Export Selection, and then click Target lengths to CSV.

Target length file format (*.targetlength.csv)
The first line of the .csv file lists the variables that are exported (these will be used as column headings if the file is loaded into a spreadsheet program). Each subsequent line contains the value for each variable for each single target.
