     <a href="#faq6_23">6.23 Export: I heard phpMyAdmin can export Microsoft
     Excel files, how can I enable that?</a></h4>
 
-<p> Current version does support direct export to Microsoft Excel and Word
-    versions 2000 and newer. If you need export older versions, you can use
-    <abbr title="comma separated values">CSV</abbr> suitable for Microsoft Excel,
-    which works out of the box or you can
-    try native <b>experimental</b> MS Excel exporter. <b>This export has
-    several problems, most important are limitation of cell content to 255
-    chars and no support for charsets, so think carefully whether you want to
-    enable this.</b>.  For enabling this you need to set
-    <a href="#cfg_TempDir" class="configrule">$cfg['TempDir']</a> to
-    place where web server user can write (for example <tt>'./tmp'</tt>) and
-    install <abbr title="PHP Extension and Application Repository">PEAR</abbr>
-    module Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer into php include path. The
-    installation can be done by following command:</p>
-
-<pre>
-pear -d preferred_state=beta install -a Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer
-</pre>
-
-<p> First part of switches set we want to install beta version of that module
-    (no stable version available yet) and then we tell pear we want to satisfy
-    dependencies.</p>
-
-<p> If you are running in PHP safe mode, you will have to set
-    in <tt>php.ini</tt> the <tt>safe_mode_include_dir</tt> to the directory
-    where your <abbr title="PHP Extension and Application Repository">PEAR</abbr>
-    modules are located, for example:</p>
-
-<pre>
-safe_mode_include_dir = /usr/local/lib/php
-</pre>
-
+<p> You can use
+    <abbr title="comma separated values">CSV</abbr> for Microsoft Excel,
+    which works out of the box, but phpMyAdmin supports direct export 
+    to Microsoft Excel version 97 and newer.  For this to work, you need to set
