Thanks for bringing this exporting error to my attention, @ssmaupin and @Rader.

Exporting your payroll reports is my priority. With that being said, allow me to walk you through repairing your QuickBooks Desktop to resolve this issue.

Here's how:

1. Restart your computer to close unnecessary programs interfering with QuickBooks.
2. Back up your QuickBooks company file.
3. Go to Start and then Control Panel. 
   • In Windows 8/8.
     1. Click the Start menu.
     2. Go to  Search.
     3. Type in Control Panel.
     4. From the results, select Control Panel.
4. Select Programs and Features. If necessary, select Uninstall a program.
5. Choose QuickBooks in the list of programs and click Uninstall/Change.
6. Click Continue, then, Next.
7. Go to Repair then Next. Wait for the Repair to complete.
8. Choose Finish.

Once repair is completed, restart your computer to make sure all QuickBooks components are updated and repaired. Make sure to download the latest QuickBooks release and the latest payroll tax table when you open QuickBooks.

On the other hand, you can try using lower versions of Microsoft Excel in exporting your reports to excel.
