One handy windows feature is to set up (install) a "print to file" printer -- it's similar in operation to a FAX printer. Once installed, all you need then do is select that printer (instead of using your default) and print your reports to it. It will ask you for a path and filename and will create the text file. To set one up click on Start > Settings > Printer > Add printer > Local printer > Use the port = File > Type of printer = Generic - Text only. The above may vary slightly depending on your operating system.
