exporting frames back to PSP from animation shop

[WinB]

Hi, I did a quick search on the forum, but there doesn't appear to be a definitive answer which works.
I am testing something on a friends computer which has PSP 10 installed, and we just installed Animation Shop 3.11.
I did an animation of 18 frames and want to export the frames back to PSP so I can put a border on ... however, the "export frames back to PSP" icon is greyed out, as is the file > export frames option...
I have checked the preferences and they are correct... I have restarted both PSP and AS, nothing has changed.
So I took the file back to MY computer where I have version 11.2 installed, and in my AS, everything is there, I CAN export the frames back.
I have done some research and it seems that this is a known problem with version 10.. does anyone PLEASE have the answer ??
Cheers

OK, I'm answering my own question here, but thought I would post it in case anyone else has the same problem later on.
I remembered that you need an earlier version of PSP installed (the jasc versions, even though you won't be using it) for all of Animation Shop to work properly with the later versions .
I installed 9 and now AS works perfectly, with the "export frames back to PSP" showing up active as it should be,and they open in version 10, as we wanted.
Thanks anyway.

I thought That having 8 or 9 might be the trick as a Friend was having the same problem and nothing she did would make it work She put ( back on but I still would not Export to psp x. Note you do have to have both Ani shop and Psp x open at the time

It will work in any Windows but It will not display fancy graphics effects in the task bar while it running. That reverts to Classic view.

Thanks for the reply Trev.

One more Q if u don't mind please,

if I download PSP 9 and even if i never open or use it,would export frames to PSP be highlighted in AS?And can the frames be exported to PSP X2 instead of 9?Cos i have read on the corel website that PSP X2 and AS 3 are not compatible!

I am using X3 and I can export from animation shop to paintshop pro And if X£ is open that where they appear. In X£ i can drag the update back from unused commands onto the file export and X3 update back

One person I know who knows her way around PSP could not get the export to PSP to work (PSP X)and we thought maybe it needed psp 9 or 8 but that still did not work But that did not work But when she got X2 and without 9 it worked fine.
I also have a bound script that can open Animation shop from inside X3

You may need to edit the path if its not the same on your computer
