Export file from media player 10 to Excel

[randyveach]

Reverend,
I must be very thick, as I still can't seem to make this work. Please let me tell you what I'm doing, and where I seem to run into a wall, and then you tell me what I'm doing wrong.

1. I call up the program by running "Start > Programs > Windows Media Bonus Pack For Windows XP > Windows Media Player Playlist Import To Excel Wizard".
2. I get a drop down menu called "Windows Media Playlist Import To Excel Wizard".
3. It has 4 steps in it. The first one I select is "Import New Playlist Data".
4. The second one is where I start to get lost. This is where you get a button to "click here to learn how" (I click this button and follow the instructions).
a. I open windows media player.
b. I click on media library (mine just says "LIBRARY" across the top).
c. I elect to export a custom playlist, so I call up the playlist that I want to export by clicking on it.
d. This is where I get lost. On step five is says; On the 'File' menu, click 'Export playlist to file'. When I click on the 'File' menu, I don't have an 'Export playlist to file' option.
E. Nothing works from this point on.

I don't mean to irritate you, I am doing a sock hop for Deep Wood Elementary School on April 7th, and they asked for a list of songs. I'm starting to run out of time. I guess I could manually list the songs, but I was hoping there was another way.

Thanks, and any help would be greatly appreciated.

OK follow these instructions:

Open Windows Media Player and click the Library tab.

Click the button above the List pane (located on the right hand side),and from the drop down menu select Edit Playlist,then select the Playlist items you want.

Note: You can also drag items from the Details pane (middle pane) into the List pane (right hand pane).

To save any changes to the playlist, click the List button again and select Save Playlist As. In the Save As window that opens choose a name for your playlist and add the .asx extension. (e.g Music.asx). Click Save.

Now go to Start > Programs > Windows Media Bonus Pack For Windows XP > Windows Media Player Playlist Import To Excel Wizard.

Step 1: Import New Playlist Data
Step 2: ~ you can skip this ~
Step 3: Click the browse button and navigate to the playlist file you saved earlier.
Step 4: Hit the "Click Here To Continue" button.

This will open Excel and import your playlist.

Reverend,
Randy here. I think I've figured it out (at least I've created four lists). I don't think I will need your help on this one. Thanks for driving me to think a little.
