Hi Southern2018,
The error you’re running into is still coming from Excel’s Trust Center having a sulk. Since your IT team already can’t unblock those File Block settings for the older Excel 97–2003 format we use for exports, the best move is to have your IT reach out to Microsoft Support. This way, they can dig into why those options are locked in your environment and recommend the right tweak for your version of Office.

Sorry Doreen, that is like passing the buck. Not all companies use IT teams, some of us, like many, are small businesses which was the original aim of Myob when it first began in Australia in 1991. Using a version of Excel that is over 10 years old is ridiculous, especially when MYOB constantly has updates.
As technology leaps forward, it is wise for any software platform to keep up with the changes. Updates seem redundant if it does not.
