Ok I selected the head of a figure hit copy, opened a text editor and pasted. Below is a partial list of what I got. Here you have morph names, interpolation style, dial settings, but what is the "0" and the "42"???
Head 0 HdAfrican Spline 0.0000 42

Head 0 HdJapanese Spline 0.0000 42
Head 0 HdPolynesian Spline 0.0000 42
Head 0 HdLatin Spline 0.0000 42
Just something that is bothering me.

I don't know about the zero, but 42 is the answer to the universe. At least according to The HitchHikers Guide to The Galaxy.

Well, the last ten are numerical from 1 to 10, or is that just a co-incidence.

Doubt it's a coincidence. Seems to only capture dial parameters. No luck in the material room. 20 hours now, I think I'm due for some sleep.

In P4 there are only 4 fields, not the 5 that you show from P5. P4 does not have the field in which you have the value '42'. In P4 again, the field in which you have '0' is the frame number (you can capture all the parameter values for multiple bodyparts & figures, in multiple frames, by highlighting & copying ranges of keyframes from Poser's Animation Palette.) Pasting this stuff into a spreadsheet app, rather than a word processor, allows you to do some faster, more interesting manipulations -- such as copying & pasting entire columns & performing mathamatical alterations on specific ranges of fields, across multiple frames, all at once. Also note that you can select & re-paste subsets of parameters. You could select just the group of dials for nose and paste all those back into a figure without disturbing the figure's other Head dials.

Spreadsheets? I didn't think of that. I can't install Office until I replace the harddrive that crashed on me. Right now, I'm surviving on one 20GB. I barely have 15% free to defrag.
