Michael Jordan has been quoted as saying that “Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence wins championships.” CDD has always embraced collaborative teamwork and now, we are happy to announce a new partnership with Microsoft Cloud Storage Program.
You can now view and edit your Office documents (such as Microsoft Excel, Word, and PowerPoint) from within the CDD Vault ELN environment.
Once an Office file is attached within an ELN entry, the user may choose between multiple display options. The default view is a condensed view showing only the file name along with the appropriate Microsoft logo and menu options that appear when the user hovers over the file with the mouse.
Clicking the “Change size” icon
Users may also edit their Microsoft Excel, Word or PowerPoint files by clicking the “Open in Office” icon to view and edit that file directly within the browser.
The Office file will launch the online version of the appropriate application (Microsoft Excel, Word, PowerPoint) in a new browser tab. Here, users can choose to edit the document, if desired.
All edits are saved automatically to CDD Vault, there is no need to explicitly Save. There’s no need to download and re-import new versions. Collaborative editing is enabled for all Office file formats and you can even track changes in Microsoft Word.
