Exporting to XML

Greetings,

I'm trying to export to XML format and I'm running into some problems. First I tried using the XML Reporting Wizard add-on, but Project got hung up in the middle of the export and I had to kill the process. Next I tried simply "Save as..." XML and I achieved the same result. Is my project too big? The initial part of the save/export process seems to run fine, and then all of a sudden it runs into trouble and gobbles up CPU usage with no progress. I've even given it around 10-15 minutes and still nothing. My project is around 1500 tasks long and only about a hundred resources. Is there a general reason for this sort of problem?

Thanks.

Could be a couple of things.

Perhaps your computer is underpowered - Try giving it longer or using a
computer with more memory.
Perhaps there is some corruption in your file - Try saving your project as a
database and then try it from there.
