Summary
This document describes using style sheets to present reports in customized formats.

To locate the XML with which a report is generated and therefore what you can base your style sheet off of, go to the list you wish to transform, remove all filters (so that you see all the XML available), click 'Export' on the top right of the list, select XML. Next, open the xml file in a text editor. From here you can see and make use of the data and tokens represented in your style sheet.

Note: this template may include tokens that are not available on the listname that you're choosing.
