Problems with the Export command

I've been running into a problem using the Export command. The TD says
"If you use the form export [format] to..., the selected image is
exported."
I select an image in my stack and from the message box execute: export
JPEG to file "mytest2.jpg"
This should export the image as a JPEG to the defaultfolder. In fact,
this file does appear in the default folder, but neither Preview nor
PhotoShop can parse the image (Preview says "File Error. Could not open
file. It may be corrupt or a file format that Preview doesn't
recognize").
If I use the other format for Export (i.e. export image...) and type
in: export image "imagename" to file "mytest2.jpg" as JPEG, it works
as expected.
Any idea why the Export [format] version doesn't seem to be generating
a valid JPEG file (I've also tried with PNG with the same results)?
I'm specifically trying to use this version because I want to use the
ExportCard script that Key Ray has posted on his web site.
