Exporting Database History

The history function, while it provides a great, detailed audit trail, it is very difficult for others to learn how to read as well as review.  Has anyone else had this issue and figure out a way to get a simple revieable document?

Have you investigated the project overview?  It gives you another view of the history that might be easier for some users to use.

We have looked into that, however we would like more detail.  Being able to reveiw the equations used for extractions and seeing the resulting number of records or control total for databases is generally what we are looking for. 
I found the script you posted about writing to a .txt file from within IDEA Script - I am working on integarding that into the script I am building so that it documents the user's selections and specific database information that a reviewer would want.
