For point observations you can do this. Create an Observation List Display 
Control:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/idv/docs/userguide/controls/ObsListControl.html
with the point data.
Select the fields you want to show in the table then choose File->Export
This writes what is shown in the table as a csv (comma separated value) or excel
(xls) file.
