How do I export the report log out of Flare?

[jimkennedy]

As I run a Flare compile, it generates the report log (of all the errors, broken links, and so on). This .mclog file appears in the Project\Reports folder. Is here some way to export the content of that file out of Flare and into something like Excel or even Notepad?

Never mind, I figured it out: Right-click > Open with... > Notepad

Duh...

I'll just add my tuppence to this...

Yes, you can open it in Notepad - but I don't find that particularly useful when there are multiple issues, for multiple contributors to sort out. It would be much better to be able to just save it as an .xlsx or .csv

You can however navigate to ..\Project\Reports, and open the file with XL - select to open it as a read-only workbook - and you then have a grid in XL instead to use. Column 'I' won't be much help to you, but apart from that - you can filter, and send out to people, as you wish...
