Export Wizard not appearing

[Amy Blankenship]

I want to export a query with an export specification, and I've followed the
help instructions about 10 times, using probably 5 different export formats.
When I press the Export button, instead of the Export Wizard popping up,
which, according to the Help, is what is supposed to happen, it simply does
a default export. Is there something else I am supposed to do to get at
this wizard?

Thanks;

Amy

Amy,
do you have the query closed,
you clicked on to select it
you clicked the file menu and chose Export
then enter the save file name then click export
If save formatted is checked on, it just does the export, otherwise the
export wizard opens.
Does this work for you?

No, but what did work was faking an import to get the wizard to open once,
then it worked as advertised in the Help.

Thanks;

Glad you got it sorted. How did you think of faking an import as a test?

Everything I read in the Help and found on Google suggested that it was
either the same wizard or one that worked on the same principles, so I
figured if I couldn't get that one to open, it would at least give me more
troubleshooting info.
