Android Internal Storage advice

I am developing an app for University.

I have bought a Nexus 7 google tablet for the task (I wanted a tablet anyway :P)

I need to convert data I record on the app onto a text file that can be moved onto a PC.. Now, from what I can tell android has high security on 'Internal Storage' which is the only type of storage the Nexus 7 has, and I cant seem to be able to write a text file to a folder or anything.. and I can't even find the app's data folder on the windows explorer so I presume its hidden..

It appears its possible with 'External Storage' such as an SD card but the Nexus 7 does not have an SD card slot..

what should I do? Is it possible to be done on the Nexus 7?

All Android devices have "external storage" regardless whether or not they have SD card support (http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/data/data-storage.html#filesExternal). The naming is unfortunately misleading.

If you save your data to app's default external storage, you can access them on a PC in /Android/Data/[your app's package name]/files
