I'm sorry, I didn't make myself clear. I was interested in what format the Print to File option you get when you ran a report was in. It turns out that it is a poscript dump which I can print easily but did was not really what I was looking for. I really would like to be able to export an existing report to Word, RTF or TXT format ....
