What do you mean get it on disk?
You aren't saving them to your hard drive?

Sounds like you're getting the hang of it.
Adjust the cell closest to your idle maf numbers and then maybe 1 or 2 lower and higher just to smooth the numbers out a little.

Put a 3.5" floppy in the laptop. Go to the folder that you save your uni files for datamaster in. Right click on the file you want to send me and select "Copy". Then go back to your desktop, click on "My Computer" and then click on the "A" drive. That should be the location of your 3.5" floppy drive. Once inside the "A" drive right click again and select "Paste". You should see the computer make a copy of the uni file that you want to send. Once it is finished, take the disk out and put it in your home computer.
Open the "A" drive up and copy the uni file onto your desktop.
Open your e-mail, attach it, and send it to me.

You can get into the spark tables if you want. That's something that is all just trial and error. Some say that you want to try and get the lowest map that you can and that tuning the timing helps with that. All I've ever done is get the car to where it feels good, and then not worry about it. As long as part throttle is smooth and feels good when you're driving. You can get deeper in it if you want...all up to you.
What I would do is just play with the pe vs rpm table. That's the one that you're going to want to change on the dyno if you're getting a/f data.
Don't touch the individual cylinder stuff. If you have no way to tell what it's doing then why play with it. I think the only way you could accurately do this is with an EGT in each header tube and could monitor them together to see if any cylinder is richer or leaner than the next. Skip it.
You can go to the dyno whenever you want. But I'll say it again. First you tune idle. When that is correct you tune part throttle. The last thing you do is your wot stuff. If you're done with the idle and part throttle, then by all means get that baby on a dyno.

Umm... I never got an e-mail from you, so I've seen no datalog.
If you want to, get me a datalog of 1-2 minutes of closed loop idling, then probably 10-15 minutes of part throttle in something like stop and go conditions, and then 1 good run at wot in 3rd gear if the car is an A4, or 4th gear if you have an M6. That would be the ideal datalog for people to see...that way we can get a little bit of all conditions of your car.
