Answered Export to Excel - error "Type MisMatch"

    I am trying to export GPO settings to Excel using SCM. I have Office 2010 installed. When I try to export to "Excel (xlsm)" I am getting a "Type Mismath" error in Excel and then the debugger opens to this line   "Debug.Assert False" I have enabled macros in excel. I should also note that I am using Win8 Consumer Preview for my OS.

    Andy;

    We haven't tested SCM 2.5 or SCM 2.0 on Windows 8 yet. I've spoken to a couple of other people who have tried and ran into the same error with Excel. We will be starting a new project to update SCM soon, and I'm sure that we will include support for running it on Windows 8 and that we will also include guidance and baselines for Windows 8, but I have no idea what the project dates will be.

    Regards,

    Kurt

    Its not something we are planning on resolving for prerelease versions of Windows 8. I expect that we will publish a new version of SCM that functions as designed on Windows 8 around the same time that Windows 8 ships, but we don't have a schedule laid out for that project yet so I have no idea what the actual dates will be for the beta program or the formal release of the next version of SCM.

    Taitai,

    What language are you running? We only tested it on computers running English and we've heard from a few people who have had issues when they try to install SCM on computers running other languages.
