make it so we can add videos to excel from yt also make it a proxy server so we can do it in school as well

Excel Online decides how to show dates and numbers and formulas based on where I live. I want to be able to choose how to display these Excel items. For dates, I might want mm/dd/yyyy, or I might want dd/mm/yyyy. My Excel formulas should be in the language of the application, and not based on where I live.

This app is completely unusable. The user experience is one of complete frustration. The lack of functionality really doesn't help. For it to work it needs a complete rethink and overhaul.

Need to offer a simple, faster, and easier version of excel online. The annoying features are the slowness and its need to reload frequently

it takes lot of time to open and one time only one user can

Excel online should log the changes done by user in log sheet or logs.
if mutliple users are accesing the excel and doing changes and some one wants to trak down the chages will be easy for person to track down.

Full title was supposed to read: "Instead of trying to "emulate"/"rebuild"/"migrate" individual features from Desktop in/to Excel Online, focus on framework for having the same build of excel available both via Desktop application and via Web Interface"

Keywords for this would be, for example, the following two (non-exhaustive list):

-Virtualization
-HTML5

I use Excel and other Office web apps in English, however my locale is set up as Czech Republic which I would like to keep because changing account to a different locale that uses English means changing timezone etc.

My request is that functions language would either be based on selected language or there will be an option to select language specifically for functions.

Notification or the option to refresh page every time a change is made

Excel Online cannot open when file size exceeds 5 MB.

YOU COULD DIE

Would be nice if we can change file name on the fly like with Google sheet

Ok, please make office user friendly, not just investor friendly :)))) Pleaseeeeeee!!!! NOOOOOW!!!!!

There is no technical reason to expire sessions whereas currently Excel Online (and word) get their sessions expired after a few hours. Please could the session model be fixed so that sessions expire only when deemed necessary for security reasons (at which point a re-login would be required) i.e. just like google docs.

Automatically refreshing the page would be a short-term workaround.

This problem prevents online applications having parity with desktop applications, even where the required feature subset is fully supported.

That's it. Google's design, functionality, and reliability make it far superior.

Unfortunately I can not use the google variant at my work.

You should tell people that office online exists. People are using that feature yuck Quip and Google docs. When I show this online version of office to my friends they are all surprised..
