Answer
To import/export with Primavera, the user must have administrative privileges and the Primavera Integration API must be installed in the correct directory. If you’re unsure whether or not these criteria have been met, please contact your IT department. If import/export are still disabled, make sure the P6 Integration API is in the right directory (c:\program files\primavera\integration api).
To import/export with MS Project or Excel, macros security settings must be set to medium/low or disabled.
If running Windows 7 or Vista, make sure the privilege level is set to “run as admin”. See Configuring NetPoint for Import/Export from the user guide for more details.
