Default reporting plain text files

I have found out how to do the report I want, but I can't
seem to find how to supress newlines in the report. Can
you do this (specifically for the export of a report)? If
now how do people usually export data into application
specific CSV files that have both static data and data
generated data included?

Usually the simplest way to export table fields + calculated fields is to
create a query, and use TransferText to export to CSV.

If you have not created calculated fields in a query before, it is just a
matter of typing an expression into the Field row, e.g.:
Amount: [Quantity] * [UnitPrice]
