If this argument is not specified, the results are output to a file named report_yyyymmdd_hhnnss.ext where yyyy (year), mm (month), dd (day), hh (hour), nn (minute), and ss (second) represent the date and time the file was created, and ext is txt if you selected text format, or csv for comma-separated values format. Example: report_20021218_113355.csv
-format {text|CSV}	Specifies the output format type as text or comma-separated values. If you choose text, data is presented in columnar format.
-set d_setObj	Specifies the set to report on.

Examples

The following commands find all nets whose names begin with RESULTS_CONV_INST_n and stores the set of objects in a Tcl variable net. The second command creates a text report of all objects in the set defined by the Tcl variable net and outputs the results to file report.txt.

set net [find_net -name ^RESULTS_CONV_INST_n]
report_set -format text -set $net -file report.txt

The following command creates a comma-separated values file of all objects in set inst_high and outputs the results to a file with a default name that includes the date and time the file was created.

report_set -set $inst_high -format CSV
