Hi Beka,  
You can generate a backup file from the `Backup` module  
![alt text][2]  
or export the data from the Data Management module and selecting `to Collect format`.

Many thanks,

Hi, 

moreover, your Collect records should be in the "analysis" phase, otherwise you do not see clusters/plots in Calc.
