[APBeta] Exporting from AstroPlanner V2.0b31

[Gary A. Ferguson]

Ah. Well, in fact, I was just using various old export parameters files to
define the fields I wanted. I just created a new param file using b31 and
now it seems to work fine.

I will try it again under Win7 later today.

OK, it works fine on Win XP here.

What you are describing is how it works if you have Objects &  
Observations selected.

Note: As soon as you add the first export field definition the Export  
type (Objects or Objects and Observations) is "frozen" since it  
determines what export fields are available. If you want Objects only,  
you'll have to clear all the fields (Clear All button), select  
Objects, and start again.

I'm not sure if this explains the other problems you were experiencing  
on Win 7 (?). Another thing to note is that there's a setting in Prefs- 
 >General that chooses between the old Excel format and the newer XML- 
based one.
