Exporting to MAPI (Microsoft Mail)
Note: This option works only if you have a mail client installed (Microsoft
Outlook, Microsoft Mail, or Exchange). Because the exported report is
attached to an email message, you must also have an email account
configured properly.

2. On the File menu, point to Export, and then click Export Report.
Tip: Another way to do this is to click the Export button on the Standard
toolbar.
