You can export NI VLM reports into the following formats:

  • XLSX (Excel 2007 Format)
  • CSV (Comma Separated Values)
  • HTML—Images are included in a linked filename_files folder.
  • MHT—HTML with embedded images. MHT is supported by Internet Explorer, Firefox (by extension), and Opera.
  • PNG (Image Format)

Reports are exported similarly to how they are displayed in NI VLM, with the same formatting, sorting, and sizing. When you export a grid with group rows or master detail rows, the file includes all grouped data and master detail data. To change how the report is displayed, click the Options tab and customize your report.

For reports that have a chart, you can control whether the export contains the chart, the grid, or both. Refer to Customizing Reports for more information.

Note
  • The CSV format is a text-only format and cannot contain an export of the chart.
  • Any data that is filtered out before exporting will not be present in the exported file.
