I have a lot of data sets. I want to plot all of them and export some of them to file (or print them as in example below) by clicking buttons generated next to plots.

(*Create list of 5 random data sets*)
datalist = RandomInteger[10, {5, 20}];

(*Plot all data sets and create buttons to print raw data*)
Table[{ListPlot[data], Button["Print data", Print[data]]}, {data, datalist}]//Grid

My approach is not working, as the action of the button is executed outside of the scope of 'Table' function. How can I procedurally generate distinct buttons binded to different elements from list?

That's a typical use of With[]:

(*Create list of 5 random data sets*)
datalist = RandomInteger[10, {5, 20}];

(*Plot all data sets and create buttons to print raw data*)
Table[
  {ListPlot[data],
   With[{data00=data},Button["Print data",Print[data00]]]},
  {data, datalist}] // 
Grid  

data00=data ... Print[data00] could perfectly be replaced by data=data ... Print[data]

enter image description here

When you push a button, then the data are printed :

{5,4,3,9,10,9,2,9,4,5,9,6,8,5,0,9,4,9,6,4}

Grid[{ListPlot[#], Button["Print", Print[#]]} & /@ datalist]
