Recently, one of our test engineers returned from one of our contract manufacturers. Before he left I asked him to bring back the datalog files. To my surprise the files were all .mdb or database files. My hope was columnar data. Is there a way to convert the .mdb files into .dat or .txt files? I work exclusively in Excel to crunch data. My tools are all in Excel.

Hi Tony,
I have not tested this, but within TestStand go to the Tools menu and look for "Database Viewer." I believe within this utility you can open your .mdb file by going to File>>Open. After your file is open, you should be able to go to File>>Export Document which will give you options to export the data to a different file type such as .txt or .csv (even xls or xlsx).
