    Exporting Lists to a spreadsheet - can it be done?

    I would like to somehow export lists based on Flags to a spreadsheet. I have some flags whose search result I would like to combine in a single report. If not a spreadsheet, any other possibilities? Thanks.

    There's no way to directly export a list to a spreadsheet (though that would be a great feature request!).

    However, you can accomplish the same thing by first marking the people in the list, then using File > Export > Text and limiting the export to "Marked People."

      Thanks. I can save a text file of a results list using the share icon and choosing Text file as the destination. This would work, but the formatting and sorting options of a spreadsheet would be better. Still, I might give it a try.

        You may have already noticed this, but it's worth mentioning: although Reunion calls it a "text file," it's not plain text but rather rich text (rtf). You can convert rich text to plain text quite easily in TextEdit by choosing "Make Plain Text" from the "Format" menu.
