Edit a Document on Your Team Site Using Office Web Apps

With Office 365, you can view and edit Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote documents directly from your Web browser using Office Web Apps. Office 365 is the only set of Web-enabled tools designed to be fully compatible with Microsoft Outlook, Word, PowerPoint and Excel. Open one of the Office documents that you uploaded to your team site in high fidelity, and update it with Office Web Apps.

1.Go to your team site, and click on one of the Office documents you uploaded to open it, or hover over the title and select View in browser or Edit in browser from the drop-down menu.

If you just click on the document in SharePoint, the default behavior is for the document to open in reading view. You will notice that the document looks exactly as intended. When you switch to Editing view, the document might change. However, the content is not altered. The paramount design goal for the Office Web Apps was to provide people with consistent, high- fidelity experiences. Documents maintain integrity of content, features and formatting, no matter which Office application they were created in or shared with (desktop, Web or mobile). They may look slightly different in different experiences because of different feature sets, but the information and structure are maintained.

2.Make some edits, and note that the file is being auto-saved as you work.

Simultaneously Edit a Document With a Colleague (Co-Author) Using Office Web Apps

Office Web Apps allow you and your team to simultaneously edit the same spreadsheet or OneNote notebook from your individual locations. For example, you can work on one section in an Excel spreadsheet while a colleague works on another section in the same file at the same time.
