■ Reviewing and Editing Excel Worksheets
from Microsoft Office 365
by EckoTango
When new authors open the file while you’re working on it, Word displays a pop-up message and shows you the number of authors working in the current file. (See Figure 8-15.)
FIGURE 8-15 Office 365 lets you know when another author logs in to co-author the current file.

When you finish making changes in the document, simply click File and choose Close. If any changes have not been saved, you’ll be prompted to save the file. You can return to the SharePoint document library and view the file and see that all changes are reflected in the file.
Similar to the process of opening, viewing, and editing other files in your SharePoint document library, you can open an Excel worksheet in Excel Web App. Click the arrow in the SharePoint document library to view or edit the file in your browser. Although the features in Excel Web App are limited, you can add data, create formulas, use functions, and sort, filter, and recalculate the data in the workbook. You’ll find everything you need for entering, formatting, and adjusting rows and columns on the Home tab.
Note At this time, Excel Web App in Office 365 does not support the use of charts, although you can add charts to the version of Excel Web App that is available through Windows Live SkyDrive.
In addition to using the workbooks and data tables you create, you can work with PivotTables you previously created using your desktop version of Excel 2010.
