In Salesforce, you can export reports to several different file types, including Comma Delimited (.csv), Excel (.xls), and PDF.

Comma Delimited (.csv) is a file format used to store tabular data in which each row represents a record and each column represents a field in that record. CSV files are widely used because they can be easily opened in many different applications, including Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets.

Excel (.xls) is a file format used to store spreadsheets created in Microsoft Excel. This file format can also be opened in other spreadsheet applications like Google Sheets and Apple Numbers. When you export a report to an Excel file, Salesforce will create a workbook with one sheet for each report grouping level.

PDF is a file format used for document exchange. PDFs can be viewed on most devices without the need for any additional software. When you export a report to a PDF, Salesforce will create a single file that includes all the report data.

Therefore, the correct answer to the question is option B: Comma Delimited (.csv), option C: Excel (.xls), and option D: PDF are the file types that you can use when exporting reports in Salesforce. Option A is incorrect because you can export a report in addition to emailing it.
