Office XP Tour

Enabling Collaboration for Everyone
 

With its advanced document editing and reviewing features, advancements in scheduling and messaging, and Web-based Microsoft SharePoint� Team Services, Office XP can transform the way you and your colleagues work together.

 

Get Your Team on the Same Page
The Send for Review feature streamlines the feedback process for Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft PowerPoint, giving the author full control over which comments and revisions to accept or reject.

Work from a single Office document with everyone's comments and changes, color-coded by reviewer and displayed in markup balloons in the right margin.

 

Manage All Your E-Mail in One Place
Microsoft Outlook is your complete personal-information management and messaging solution. Consolidate multiple e-mail accounts, including those on MSN Hotmail, and send and receive instant messages with MSN Messenger�all within a single view.

When you open a contact card or view an e-mail message from an MSN Messenger user, Outlook automatically lets you know if that person is online so you can reply with an instant message.

Take Advantage of Improved Calendaring
Office XP reduces the amount of time spent on setting up meetings and schedules with new tools such as Group Schedules, Calendar Coloring, and a unified Reminders Window.

Now, if you receive a meeting request in Outlook and are unavailable, you can propose a new time rather than just declining the request.

 

Work Together with SharePoint Team Services
Integration with SharePoint Team Services allows you to share information seamlessly between Office XP programs and your SharePoint team Web site, opening up new possibilities in teamwork.
