Seriel.print data limitations?

Hey people I've just bought a new Arduino board and I am experimenting with it. (Newbie Here!)

I made a small circuit to test the Serial.print data and it works fine.
However the IDE seems to restrict the number of lines which are printed on screen. Is there any way where the data can be stored into a text file ? The aim is to ultimately convert the data to .csv so as to be able to generate graphical representations of the data.

Thanks

If you are on a Windows based system you can use Hyperterminal instead of the serial console in the IDE.

Hyperterminal can save files.

Here is advice from those who have gone before...
