I'm using my SharePoint site for my

00:00:04

sales department and I would like

00:00:05

to make sure I know how to open the

00:00:08

documents and how to work on them.

00:00:09

What are the things needed to know?

00:00:13

Let's sit together in this library.

00:00:15

I have right now three different documents,

00:00:18

a Word, PowerPoint and an Excel.

00:00:22

By simply left clicking on any of these.

00:00:26

We can see that I just oened

00:00:28

them in a new tab online.

00:00:31

I am not in the desktop application,

00:00:33

I'm online, I can work on the document.

00:00:37

And simply add data.

00:00:41

Once I'm done working on it,

00:00:43

I do not have to save anything.

00:00:45

No control plus no white save.

00:00:47

Save as the save are automatic.

00:00:51

This symbol tells me that

00:00:53

my file is now saved.

00:00:55

Every single modification you

00:00:57

make is saved automatically.

00:00:58

Once you are done working on a document,

00:01:01

you simply have.

00:01:04

To close it.

00:01:06

It works the same for PowerPoint.

00:01:10

As we can see on the top left of your

00:01:12

screen we have the same cloud symbol.

00:01:15

Which says saved.

00:01:18

And Microsoft Word.

00:01:23

Right here. Please note

00:01:26

that whether it is Word,

00:01:28

PowerPoint or the Excel, these files

00:01:31

have been opened in the online tabs.

00:01:33

But what if you wish to work

00:01:37

on the desktop apps?

00:01:39

Well know that the owners of the site

00:01:42

can change a default settings which

00:01:44

will allow you once left clicking on the

00:01:47

document to open directly the desktop app.

00:01:49

But apart from that, as a user you

00:01:53

can click on the three ellipses.

00:01:56

Click on Open and choose A.

00:01:58

The Immersive Reader is only

00:02:01

available for Word and not PowerPoint

00:02:04

and allows you to consult your

00:02:07

document without any distraction.

00:02:09

If you are already.

00:02:12

In the Online A, you can click on

00:02:15

Editing at the top right of your screen.

00:02:18

And open in desktop A.

00:02:21

Remember whether you open it online

00:02:23

in the desktop app on the phone,

00:02:27

Windows computer, MacBook,

00:02:28

no matter the device,

00:02:30

it will always be the same

00:02:33

documents which we can work on.

00:02:35

Everything will be saved.

00:02:38

And on night.
