In Access 2007 I would like to take a report and export it to Excel but for
some reason the Excel button is unavailable. All of the others are available
(like Word, HTML, Snap Shot Viewer, etc), but not the Excel button. Does
anyone know why?

Thanks,
Heather

As first released, Access 2007 had the "Export-to-Excel" disabled, reputedly
due to a lawsuit Microsoft lost. You might want to check to see if updates
have resolved this.
