Another way I use these reports is print to pdf and then upload to my itouch (or whatever you might use - phone, tablet, etc.) Very helpful because I can pull up my to-dos and make notes, takes photos/scans. The written version works well too but depending on where you are and what you are doing, sometimes having it all on one of these devices helps when you get stumped in the area you planned to research or there are those additional research moments. Between uploading my Legacy database and my pdfs to-dos to the itouch, I really do have a lot at my fingertips.
