Export to “Microsoft Word Document” instead of “Microsoft Word 97 – 2003 Document”
"Microsoft Word 97 - 2003" file format is not compatible with Microsoft SharePoint. In this file format, you can’t use the “autosave” function, and multiple people are not able to collaborate in the document concurrently. Updating format to "Microsoft Word Document" will likely improve user workflows.
(Same with Word and Excel files in GLM/SLM. Will post idea there too)
