Chris and Dave's SharePoint And Tech Blog

   Previously I posted about where’s the save in the SharePoint 2010 Web Apps  well today SharePoint 2010 became available on MSDN for download so I am pleased to report that the missing save is almost back, in the Excel web app as you can see from the image below you now have a “Save As” button

But no save, as for OneNote and PowerPoint no save but you do now have an Undo and Redo buttons across all the web apps so a slight improvement for those people that love the save button.

If you have web apps set up on SharePoint 2010 (a nifty feature I think!) you will notice that office documents in a  library will not always open in the browser but will open up the full fat office programme.

To make sure that your documents open using the browser app then go into the doc lib settings, click advanced settings then check the radio button to open in browser!

The defaut behaviour will now be set to open in Web Apps in the browser!

 I have been using SharePoint 2010 for quite a while now but it was only yesterday that I tried the Excel, PowerPoint and Onenote web apps having limited myself to using the Word web apps all throughout our testing phase of our SharePoint 2010 deployment.

 So it was only when I was using these apps that I noticed that there is no save button but they save dynamically as you use them. So for anyone else that cannot find the save button please see the images below.
