Project Web Access via IE7: "Export Grid to Excel" cause VBSCRIPT (error) message: "The activeX control on which this feature depends could not be created"

Dear all,

I don't know if this is the right forum for this question, so please bare
with me (I've also post this question in the
microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general forum).

When we in "Project Web Access" accessed via in Internet Explorer 7 (IE7)
select "Export Grid to Excel" this cause the following VBSCRIPT (error)
message:
"VBSCRIPT; Microsoft Office Project Web Access 2003":
"The activeX control on which this feature depends could not be created"
"Becuase of this error, you can only copy the XML data to the Clipboard. Do
you want to continue?"

As a work-around, we select "Yes" to copy the XML data to the clipboard,
from where we paste it into a .xml file, which we then on turn without
further problems can open in Excel.

This of course works, but we would prefer to have the "Export Grid to Excel"
function really do so.

While the function worked with Internet Explorer 6 (IE6) we believe this is
a security configuration/setting issue.
The Microsoft Office Project Server in question has of course already been
added to the list of "Trusted sites" so that is not the issue.
We rather expect the problem to be a limitation of ActiveX.

Can you help please?

Kind regards,
Soren

Soren:

You're close the correct group, but in the future post to
microsoft.public.project.server instead. To answer your question, here's
what you'll need to do:

Make sure that your Project Server is in your Trusted sites
Reset your Trusted Sites Zone security to Low. Make sure that you click the
Reset button, not the OK button which does nothing.
See if this helps

If the problem persists you may need to delete and reinstall the Active X
objects.

Dear Gary,

thanks for your reply which resolved the problem perfectly fine!
Point taken concerning the correct group.
