Part IV: Using Advanced Excel Features
614
Other Internet-Related Features
Excel offers a few other Internet-related features, which I briefly describe here. Access these fea-
tures from the Share tab of Backstage View (choose File ➪ Share). Figure 28.8 shows the Share
options:l (^) Send Using E-Mail: Enables you to send the active workbook to one or more recipients
via e-mail. The file can be the actual workbook, a PDF file, or an XPS file. If the workbook
is saved to a shared location, you can send a link to the file (rather than the actual file). An
additional option lets you fax the workbook (assuming that your system has a fax service
provider).
l Save to SkyDrive: If you have a SkyDrive account, you can save the workbook to a folder
on the Internet, where it can be accessed by others. SkyDrive is a free service offered by
Microsoft (part of Windows Live). Go to http://www.windowslive.com for details.
l (^) Save to SharePoint: Publish the workbook to your SharePoint server. A SharePoint server
is a central location where files can be shared and worked on in collaborative manner.
Check with your system administrator to see whether you have access to a SharePoint
server.
l (^) Publish to Excel Services: Excel Services also requires a SharePoint server.
