Peder,
Look under 'Save As'. I don't have Protel loaded right now, so couldn't
confirm this.

As Mr. Hylton indicated, it is File/SaveAs/Format/PCB ASCII file in PCB or 
similar in Schematic.

This will write an ASCII version of the file in the active .ddb. One then 
exports this file. In the Document window, rt.click on the filename and 
select Export.

If you have the file open and it is the active window, File/Export will 
*not* accomplish the desired result, as this command is for exporting to 
non-Protel or old Protel formats. However, if the Document window is the 
active window, File/Export exports the highlighted file or files.

So I would write the ASCII files as first described, then move to the 
Document window and select both of them (SCH and PCB) and File/Export.
