How can I make spreadsheets out of AE edit?

I have read the editor manual and browsed through the AE editor, and it is loaded with great information that I would love to be able to print out and read side by side. ( aircraft dats, leaders etc. ) Sadly it seems that I lack the smarts to figure out how to transfer that data to an easy to read format that can printed. [&:]
Thanks in advance for the help!

You have to use the DOS-Box...
something like this:
cd Games\War in the Pacific Admiral's Edition\SCEN
witpload /e /s01
/e means export
/s01 means scenario 001
You'll find several csv-files in the SCEN-directory...

witploadae.exe works from the command prompt. Go to Start->Run and type cmd into the box, then click OK. You will get a window that looks like an old DOS prompt. You will have to navigate through the directories to your SCEN folder, then you can run witploadae and extract the data from the scenario files which you can open with Excel.

Follow up. I tried this and have trouble with the path I suppose.
Outside of Dos this is how I get to the folder.
My computer, Local Disk, Matrix games, WITPAE, SCEN How would I write the cmd to get to this?

cd is obligatory (means change directory)
