Hi Jim,

Your assumption is correct. When running the analyses in R and want to export the output that appears in the console window to Excel(.csv) file.
I believe it is easier to do if the export it done to an Excel (.CSV) file.

So is there a way to export the analyses in the console window to a .CSV file with the good formatting ?
I am looking to export the whole output if possible. 

I found this code, but it doesn’t cover the whole output of the console. 

write.csv(coef(summary(test)), file=“test.csv”)

My whole output consists of descriptives and regressions. 

Best,

Bryan Mac
