RE: How 2 extract a specific column from .f06 file [NASTRAN/PATRAN]

excel is good for this, but ...

open the f06 in word,
save in .txt format,
in excel, input data from text,
make sure the column you want is a single column in excel.

another day in paradise, or is paradise one day closer ?

Note that Excel does have a limit on the number of rows

There are programs that can parse fixed format files. like:

You could possibly write your own:
