Exporting a report to an email or a text file
Instead of viewing the report as a chart, you can email the report data to an email address. Or
export the report data to a comma delimited text file (*.csv) for use in other programs.
1. On the menu bar, select ToolsReportsEvents.
2. Under Specify Report Criteria on the Report Criteria window, select criteria options in the lists
to customize the content and appearance of the Events report.
Table 40 (page 207) summarizes the available report criteria options.
3. Click Export.
4. On Export Raw Data, do one of the following:
To send the report data to an email address, click Email. Type or select the email address,
type an optional comment in the Comment box, and then click OK.
To save the report data to a comma delimited text file, click Save. Specify a file path and
file name, and then click OK.
5. To close the Report Criteria window, click Cancel.
Saving a report template
If you frequently generate the Events report with the same set of report criteria, save the criteria as
a template. Loading the template recalls the saved report criteria and lets you quickly generate a
report based on the saved criteria.
1. On the menu bar, select ToolsReportsEvents.
2. Under Specify Report Criteria on the Report Criteria window, select criteria options in the lists
to customize the content and appearance of the Events report.
Table 40 (page 207) summarizes the available report criteria options.
3. Under Templates, click Save.
4. Type a name for the template, and click OK.
The template appears in the list under Templates.
5. To load the saved report criteria at a later time, select the template in the list, and then click
View to generate the report.
6. To close the Report Criteria window, click Cancel.
