Found the code. The problem was it always prompted the user before the
export.
  program
  map
  end

Window WINDOW('Caption'),AT(,,260,100),GRAY
       OLE,AT(47,16,100,82),USE(?Ole)
       END
     END
  code
  open(window)
  display()
  accept
    if event()=event:openwindow then
      ?ole{prop:ReportException}=1
      ?ole{prop:create}='{{64AB4BB7-111E-11d1-8F79-00C04FC2FBE1}'
      ?ole{'ImportExportFavorites(0,"D:\fav.txt")'}
      post(event:closewindow)
    end
  end
  close(window)
