Saving query results is not a good idea as the saved result would not be
updated by changes that are made during the time that you save them. It is
better to save the query formulation unless it is a trivial one. There is a
whole screenful of custom queries that can be set up. They are actually
saved to a certain extent. If you do a find and then exit ebase, the next
time you bring it up on that machine you will be looking at the last found
set.

There are two ways of producing new reports besides the built-in ones. If
you own FileMaker you can write your own custom reports. If not your best
bet is to export the appropriate data and use some other program that you do
have, e.g. Excel, to produce the report.
