Tag: office service pack 2

The Microsoft Office team have released a great big list of fixes contained in Service Pack 2 for Office 2007 and some of them are great, and look like they’ll fix some issues I’m having 🙂 The full article can be found here and my pick of the fixes is below. (ps SP2 will be out 28th of April 2009-so next week!)

Excel: A chart object model has been added to Word and PowerPoint.

Groove: Synchronization reliability has been improved.

Outlook:

Performance in startup, shutdown, view rendering, and folder switch has been improved.

Calendar updates, search, and RSS are more reliable.

Powerpoint: Resaving of files is faster.

 Server side:

Excel Services: Improved compatibility with Mozilla Firefox browsers.
