PWA ActiveX Problem

S

Skip Purdy

I have a new Project Server installation that is working fine. I'm running
into this problem:

In PWA, when a user clicks on the "Export to Excel" link, the following
error message appears:

"The ActiveX control on which this feature depends could not be created.
Because of this error, you can only copy the XML data to the Clipboard. Do
you want to continue? [Yes/No]"

I have seen a few notes indicating that the PWA site needs to be in the
Trusted Sites zone (and it is), and that the IE settings need to allow for
ActiveX scripts to run. I am positive this is set correctly.

What else should I look for?

Thanks

Hi Skip,

The "Export to Excel" link works only with Excel 2003. Is that the case
with you or are you using another version such as Excel XP or 2000?
