Viewing Microsoft Excel Files
Microsoft Excel does not allow you to open two documents with the same name, even if
they are in different folders. For example:
1 Select an Excel file in the tree view and click the View tab. The file is displayed in the
details pane.
2 Right-click the same file in the tree view and select View in Window from the menu.
This produces an error.
This behavior is a limitation of Microsoft Excel.
An error occurred in the secure channel support
Information on the cause of this problem and how to fix this it are available here:
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q177/3/01.asp. This error is usually caused by
installing Service Pack 3 after you install Internet Explorer. Microsoft recommends:
1 Click Start, and then click Run.
2 In the Open box, type regsvr32 rsabase.dll , and then click OK.
We recommend upgrading to the latest version of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
Based on the interaction among certain versions of Internet Explorer, Microsoft Project,
and Buzzsaw, viewing Microsoft Project files in Buzzsaw can be difficult. Users must start
Microsoft Project prior to navigating to the View tab for an MPP file stored in Buzzsaw.
Invoking Microsoft Project without opening an MPP is sufficient to do the trick.
Session
If the Buzzsaw Login dialog box appears while you are working with Buzzsaw, enter your
site URL address, and then click OK. If the Login dialog box immediately reappears, enter
your Buzzsaw User Name, Password, and site URL (should still be there), and then click OK.
If your Buzzsaw session times out or an external viewer starts its own session you may get
a network login prompt with a resource name of Buzzsaw.com. Reenter your login and
password to open your site.
XREF Upload Wizard
Buzzsaw cannot locate XREF'd files that are specified in AutoCAD drawings using URL-based
path names. UNC names are handled, but if the user opts to preserve the directory structure,
they must be a site administrator for the operation to succeed.
