Export as XLSX file
Wrike only exports to Excel as an XLS file, which has been out of date since 2007. I want to be able to export as an XLSX file because the current version of Excel has capabilities that the 15-year-old version doesn't. Manually changing the version after exporting using Save As in the Excel app doesn't work because data can get jumbled during the file transition. Allowing users to export to the current version of Excel makes sense because it is what everybody has on their computer at this point and allows for capabilities that are needed by businesses around the world.
