Cannot export cut list to Excel

[Gene Davis]

Nothing comes through except for the body of text atop the \"link\" command line that reads Export cutlist to Excel

What am I doing wrong?

How about a feature enabling exporting of the Buy List to Excel?

Gene,
You should get the pop up dialogue box seen below when you click on Export to Excel. I think there is a setting you change in windows if you are not getting this box. Dan Epps probably knows where to change the setting.

For the buy list you can select all and copy it using the right click menu, then paste it into excel. It will allow you to edit but is not as functional as the export feature.

There is a setting but I don't remember right off where it is (old age setting in). I will find it and post the directions.

Okay, here is how to change the settings so that the cutlist will start Excel:

Double-click My Computer
Select Tools/Folder Options
Select File Types
Scroll down and select .XLS
Select the Advanced button

You should have a dialog box for Edit File Type and there should be a check box for Confirm open after download. If this box is checked you will get the prompt.

Thanks to Rolf Bergstrom for these steps.

Here are screen shots of what you should see.
