Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm not trying anything huge.
I just tried to get a quick spreadsheet out of it and stumbled.
I thought there would be some easy way to get quick reports
like there was in Quicken, but GC requires more user assembly.
It's the Ikea of financial software. :-)
The suggestions you made helped.
Thanks very much!

If you took the report data and pasted it directly into your favorite
spreadsheet, you could save the result as CSV, no problem.
At this point, it might be more useful if you explained more
completely what it is you're trying to accomplish. Then people on the
list could help you solve the problem, rather than half answer your
half-stated question.

Thank you for the detailed instructions.
I found that 'Transaction Report' will do what I want, but then
I can't export to CSV.
I can export to HTML by Export Report
I can 'Export as PDF' but not CSV. That's what I'm missing.
This would be really nice to add.
I can Export Transactions, but that does not export the transactions
of the transaction report which is what I wanted to do.

go to File | Export, it asks me which accounts again, it doesn't
export the actual report. When I export the transactions I want,
it exports both sides of the transaction, so the column sum is
always zero whereas I want the sum of the transactions. In other
words, each transaction takes two lines, the line I want (the
expense of what I bought), and the next line which is the account
that paid it (like a charge card). How do I get rid of the
double-lines on the export? We're apparently not seeing the same
thing you are. Here's a way to get an Account Report for your
credit card transactions. (This is using GnuCash 4.9.) 1) Open the
account Accounts tab --> open Liabilities : Credit Cards :
BigBankTwo VISA (yours will differ) 2) Use Filter By to select the
transactions you want [while the register is active] View -->
Filter By (choose parameters such as date, number of days,
reconciled, etc.) 3) Open Account Report [while the filtered
register is active] Reports --> Account Report 4) Adjust the
options on the report Edit --> Report Options (here you can
adjust specific columns, single or double amount columns, totals
or running total, style, report name, etc.) 5) Export the report
You can copy what's on your screen and paste it into a word
processor or spreadsheet OR File --> Export --> Export
Report (give it a name -- it will save an .html file you can open
with a web browser or a spreadsheet program) ----- Please remember
