[Qgis-user] export data as .csv or .txt

[M.E.Dodd]

Is it possible to export (or save) data from qgis as a simple text file, for example I deal with a lot of point data and after doing various things such as finding the attributes of each point on a raster image within the gis I then want to then get this data out as a simple text file so it can go into other statistical programs for further analysis or data handling.
At present I save as shapefile then convert this in mapinfo and save as .csv which seems a very long way round.
