Hello CCP Devs,
I would like to submit a feature request.

Wallet Transactions to CSV

Essentially I'm asking for a feature to export all my wallet transactions to a comma-separated-textfile, which could then be imported and further processed through all sorts of neat calculation and analysis tools (e.g. OpenOffice Calc / MS Excel etc).

"Why? How would that improve the game?"
Us carebearing virtual CEOs love statistics.
Not only do they tell us how great we did in the past, they also tell us in which areas we failed or could do better.
Ask your own marketing department, they'll tell you exactly why :P

It should be easy enough to implement such a data export feature, and I believe that many industry / trade oriented players would love to have it.

"But... Spreadsheets in Space, we hate that nickname!", you say?
Come on guys, that ship has sailed. Might as well roll with it. :P

Any chance we could get that feature implemented?

Although you can get the wallet transactions from the API a more low tech solution like c.s.v. would be useful for people like me that just want to crunch some numbers in a timely fashion.

I doubt it would require much development time as there is already a facility to do this with market sell / buy orders for a specific product.

Exactly my thought.
Export to CSV would be a solution for those of us who can't use the API for whatever reason (e.g. not geeky enough, no access to a development environment to use the API etc). Straight

Seems pretty reasonable, you might add it to the new Little Things thread. Be sure to use proper formatting!
