Certificate creating and key export is disabled.

I have a .cer, or the text generated by a CSR tool. This text contains the Certificate request text as well as RSA Private key as per below.

I am trying to create an export of the cert with the key using Windows Certificate console. When I try to export it the option to export the key is disabled. The process I am following is to use the 'certrqxt.asp web page, I am pasteing the Cert request data from the file below into the cert request box, submitting it them importing the cert into the cert manager ready to export it. When I view the cert there is no evedence of any keys. How do I enable the export key part of the process or should I be using and alternative method to create the cert?

"

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
xyz

-----END CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----

Please save below Key for your future use.

-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
zyx

-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

"

Thanks

Steve
