| Why won't Project Import/Export to/from Excel
Hello, I have a group of Project users who need to import/export to/from Excel however, they all get "Operation Failed" errors. We think it may be because of patch KB948962. Does anyone know anything about this? TIA, Rich  |

Hello Rich, Have you tried changing the "Allow legacy file formats" on the security tab in Tools > Options. I don't recall if this was in the SP-3 push or the security fix you mention, but I believe project works with earlier versions of Excel than 2003 when exporting. I am using Project 2003 with SP-3 and when I turn off the option to allow loading, I get a message saying I have to enable it. I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.

Hi Julie - I'm getting the exact same problem, just a dialogue box with 'Operation Failed' and nothing else. I've tried using an existing map and a new map but it's all the same. I don't appear to have the "Allow legacy file formats" option on the security tab in Tools > Options. Peace.

Hi Anthony, Do you have SP-3 installed? Try installing that and enabling legacy formats and see if that helps. I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.

Hi Julie - No, we're on SP2. I'll talk to the system administrator and will get back to you as and when it's installed. Thanks for the prompt reply - it's much appreciated.
