There's no easy answer to your question - it will depend on what format
the report is in, what format you need it in, what tools you have at
your disposal, your skill level, etc.
On one side, I personally find the NBE output format very flexible and
use that. Results are stored on one line and if you're comfortable with
writing unix shell scripts / filters, it's trivial to extract results
for, say, one or two plugins of interest.
On the other, Tenable's Lightning Console
(http://www.tenablesecurity.com/products/lightning.shtml) provides a
web-based solution for organizing and managing network security
information, including Nessus scanners and its reports.
And in between, there are various third-party tools, such as the
recently-announced simpleness (http://tech.stlsawall.com/docs/nessus/),
Inprotect (http://www.inprotect.com/), nessQuick
(http://www.atriskonline.com/archives/00000048.shtml), etc.
