Exports need to be compatible with current Microsoft Office releases

I receive the following error during export: Error opening export: Error opening Microsoft Office 2007 Application: ActiveX component can't create object Make sure you have Microsoft Office 2007 installed on your machine.

The real problem is that Microsoft is prone to locking out their own outdated software from their new releases. I can link an mdb to an accdb right now, but I may not be able to do that when the mdb is no longer supported. There is no reason I can see that Raiser's Edge shouldn't export to the most current version of the Office products.

There are workarounds, but, wouldn't it be better to fix the problem?
