Word List Printing

I am trying to print the Grid section for a word list, but I can't seem to figure out how.  When I go to the print function in the corner, it only allows me to print flash cards.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

    It seems the print dialog presupposes flash card format, but you can export the content of the Word List in spreadsheet format (which will be a *.xml file) and then use e.g. Excel to print the grid. It will have column headers so you can even filter, sort etc. prior to printing it from there.   

    EDIT: see the green arrow in the updated screenshot.

    Alternatively, you may save the Word list (which will be the grid format, too) to RTF which can be opened by your favorite word processor, or directly send to a new or open Word document - orange arrows in the screenshot.

    Unfortunately, for whatever reason the sending to a new or open Excel document doesn't work currently on my machine (maybe a bug?), but as said above, saving to spreadsheet format and opening the .xml with/from Excel does just fine. /EDIT
