You probably hit an old bug.

You need to specify the file name extension in the file dialog:
so something like mydata.xls or mydata.txt


By the way, which version do you use?

have a nice day

Many thanks for your kind and rapid reply. It works after adding the file name extension. the version of Mapman I am using is 3.1.1. So the bug still in there?
