Jim,
To more fully answer your original question, I suspect that you need to edit
the bottom part of this mapping file. For example, your selector switch tags
come in with an "HS" embedded somewhere in the tag-ID instead of what the
mapping file is expecting (i.e. "SS"). So find the line in your file that is
currently
INPUT,*SS*,HSS112; two pos SS
and change it to
INPUT,*HS*,HSS112; two pos SS
Use this logic to map other tag-ID substrings to specific symbols.

Jim,
Yes, there should be a "mapping" file that you can adjust. The default one
is c:\program files\autodesk\acade 2006\support\_default_rslogix.wdf. It
looks something like this:
;
; Syntax is RSLogix_code,WD_blockname;comment(optional)
; Ex: 16,HLT1BP; Blue press-test pilot light
;
; Alternate match up on "TAG" name, for inputs the syntax is
; INPUT,wildcard_tag,WD_blockname;comment(optional)
; and for outputs it is
; OUTPUT,wildcard_tag,WD_blockname;comment(optional)
; Ex: INPUT,*PB*,HPB11; N.O. Pushbutton
; OUTPUT,*CR*,HCR1; Relay coil
; INPUT,*CR*,HCR21; N.O. contact

You can either modify this file or you can rename it to default_rslogix.wdf
(remove the leading "_" char) and modify it. The software should look for
the latter before the former and the latter will not be overwritten if you
do a reinstall or equivalent.
Let me know if you run into problems. You are in an area that is not heavily
travelled.

New at this, in fact am only using 2006 30-day evaluation...
When i run the Export RS to SS, by and large The excell sheadsheet looks
correct, except the are no field devices - mostly. In a few exception, a
device with a tag such as E201847STPB or ...SPPD will result in a "PB
Block" - HPB11 being inserted. As an experiment we have some Hans Switches
in the format E20HS4550. If I, in the .eas file append SS to the tag, sure
enough, the excel file get a refference to a selector switch (HSS112).
How/Where is this mapping done. I presume the export program searches each
tag for a character series (PB SS etc) and, finding such, adds a block
reference to the outputed spreadsheet. Can I added "search strings" such as
STPB, HS and "map' them to a block of choice. Do the strings need to be at
the end - E201235STPB or can they be anywhere, such as E20STPB1234 ??
