    Hi Salman,

    What version are you using? And is this with all reports or some specific ones?

    Can you create a word document on your machine and then try to save and see what's the default dimensions (.doc OR .docx). If it's doc then go to file > Options > save tab.. see there is an option to select default dimensions and what's it's set to. If it's .doc then change to docx. repeat steps above. If this time you get .docx, then try to export report and see what extension you get this time.

    Thanks,

    Satish Panwar

    I tried your solution, but D365 is still exporting the report in doc, no matter what the settings are in Word

    Any other suggestions for this?
