Help?

I'm a new imagej user and am having a problem. I know that imagej will
generate the data that I want, because I [somehow] got it to do it once. But
I don't remember the sequence of operations that I went through to get that
result. I have spent 2 weeks, working several hours each day and have not
been able to study and find the answer or try everything that seems
reasonable. My pride and ego is at ZERO! I can't do this w/o help.

 

Background:

 

I'm using a Nikon D810 camera which produces large files. I need a .csv or
.txt file w/ the brightness values. I don't want a Histogram, but the data
behind the Histogram.

 

I have been able to produce files w/ all the pixel data [X, Y, R, G, B] in
one row. That is too large to load into Excel [36,200,000 is too many rows].
Yes, I have successfully attempted to break it up into several smaller
files, but that takes hours to do one file! Then I have to extract the
summary data from each of these 2-dozen+ files and create a global summary
file.

 

As I said, I was able to [somehow] create a .txt file that was organized
differently. I had all the Y's in the rows and all the X's in the columns.
The data in each cell was the gray value [I think]. This had only 4913 rows
x 7359 columns and loaded into Excel [slowly]; it's still big, but
manageable.

 

Sorry for the long intro, getting to my question: How do I recreate another
of those Measurements.txt files, w/ only gray brightness data in cells and
in a 2D array?

 

TIA!
