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

Hi all,

i need to extract strength values from .f06 file for multiple number of plies.
For that I need to select only a column

Does any one knows how can i do it easily ?
If such thing exist in postprocessor, please do tell

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:
