Yeah, the DPM stuff in Fluent doesn't give you a nice output like that in the file menu. You should try Results -> Discrete Phase -> Sample...

The menu looks like this. You can pick any boundaries in your model. It should write the x, y, z, u,v,w, Diameter, etc. of any particle that touches/crosses the boundaries that you pick. If there's a value you want to write to the file that is not with the default, you can write a user defined function and hook it to the "Output" in this same menu.
