Exporting from Project

[Sandra]

Hello Everyone!

I'm trying to export a schedule from MSProject to an XLS, TXT, or CSV
formatted file. When it brings me to the "Export Mapping" dialog box the
"Save" button is grayed out and unselectable.

Can anyone tell me how to "ungray" it out so I can save my schedule in these
three formats?

Thanks for the help!

Sandra,
Just a guess but if the file is read-only you will not be able to save
in alternate formats. First do a "Save As" and ensure the file is not
set for "read-only recommended".

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the response John,

The file is completely open. I can save it in MPP, MDB, etc but when I save
it in a format for which you have an export map, the save button grays out.
I suppose I'll attribute it to an MSProject "Quirk". I have several files
that this happens to and the only way I've found to fix it is to rebuild the
files from scratch...so far!
