Exporting a file means it can no longer be edited within OOo. So this is not 
the 
right choice for MS format documents, which can perfectly well be edited in 
OOo. 
They need to be "saved as". 

Saving to MS formats doesn't lose information -- or, if it does, that's a 
separate bug. If what you want to do is to save a copy of the document you're 
working on in MS format, there are macros that do this -- look on oooforum.org -
- but most usaers who need to save as MS format will be doing tso to exchange 
the docs with MS format users. So they might as well work in that format, and 
then do a final save into OOo. 

There is a configuration entry always to save as MS documents.
