Using the same approach as above, select the metadata tag "Treatment2", and complete the filename by appending the text ".csv".Uncheck Use the object name for the file name?.In this instance, you would select the metadata tag "Treatment1" Right-click on the tag to display and select the available values.Use the up and down arrows to cycle through possible values.To change a previously inserted metadata tag, navigate the cursor to just before the tag and either: In Windows, the Context menu key, which is between the Windows key and Ctrl key.A right mouse button click inside the control.Insert the metadata tag of choice into the output path.

You can do this by specifying metadata tags for the folder name and file name: For instance, you might have applied two treatments to each of your samples and labeled them with the metadata names "Treatment1" and "Treatment2", and you might want to create separate files for each combination of treatments, storing all measurements with a given "Treatment1" in separate directories. This is controlled by the directory and file names that you enter. Using metadata tags for output ExportToSpreadsheet can write out separate files for groups of images based on their metadata tags. This module will convert the measurements to a comma-, tab-, or other character-delimited text format and save them to the hard drive in one or several files, as requested. Export To Spreadsheet exports measurements into one or more files that can be opened in Excel or other spreadsheet programs.
