Default There's no export to dbf files from XL2007?

Wow. I was just now trying to save from Excel to dbf and cannot believe that
the functionality was excluded from MS' newest version. I'd been using it for
years to switch back and forth from MS into other reporting/dbf software and
now find myself searching (ehem, wasting precious time) the net to find what
I need. This is terribly short-sighted from Microsoft's part.

If anyone finds a solution to this, please email me:

I'm only the messenger! You intimate 'you let me insert...' Nothing to do
with me...don't work for MS wouldn't want to.

The only thing I would say is there are far more (IMO) that are missed too,
(MS Works incompatibility for one), but I don;t build it... I'm just a
humble boss of a tool and equipment co!

Gone?! Hard to believe... You let me insert a dbf table in xls but there's
no
way to save it back? (xls to dbf) C'mon! Don't tell me I have to get back
to
Office 2003!

Does anybody meet the same problem? Please!

There's no dbf export possibilities in Excel 2007? Is this an issue of
the
new XL2k7 or I missed to install some add-ins? Thanks.
