And to make sure your charts really stand out, take advantage of stunning effects such as 3-D, soft shadowing, and anti-aliasing to help identify key data trends and create more compelling graphical summaries. Page Layout View lets you see exactly how your spreadsheet will print and direct visual feedback where the page will truncate gives you the help you need to properly adjust page margins. For seamless interaction between different software applications, the Excel charting engine is consistent in the 2007 versions of Word and PowerPoint.
Improved Spreadsheet Analysis
New data analysis and visualization tools help you analyze information, spot trends, and access your company information more easily. Use conditional formatting with rich data visualization schemes to discover and illustrate important trends, and highlight exceptions in your data with colored gradients (heat maps), data bars, and icons. When it comes to sorting and filtering, two of the most important types of basic analysis that you can do with data, Excel 2007 offers new tools, such as multiselect in AutoFilters, sort or filter by color, and quick filters for specific data types. You can also create a PivotTable or PivotChart view more easily by using data fields to reorient data quickly to summarize and find the answers you need--simply drag the fields to where you want them to display. Additionally, full support for Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services enables you to query your most current business data.
New Excel XML Format
Reduce the file sizes of spreadsheets and improve their interoperability with other data sources by using the new Excel XML Format. This option enables a more efficient exchange of information and helps keep your business running smoothly.
Share Spreadsheets and Business Information
Excel 2007 makes sharing spreadsheets and business information easier than ever before, thanks to integration with Excel Services and the new Excel XML Format. Excel Services renders an Excel spreadsheet as HTML so others can access the information within a Web browser. Other options include creating business dashboards from spreadsheets to share within a portal, and tracking the key performance indicators of your business using browser-based dashboards that can be created from Excel spreadsheets, Excel Web Access, and Office SharePoint Server 2007. You can also enjoy the flexibility of saving files as XPS or PDF (with the installation of an add-in) for easier sharing.
Effectively Manage Sensitive Information
Excel 2007 and Excel Services enable you to manage and control spreadsheets on a server to help protect important business information and ensure that people are working with the most current data. Centrally manage sensitive information by publishing spreadsheets to SharePoint Server 2007. This both helps ensure that the members of your organization are working with the most current business information and prevents the spread of multiple versions of the same file. For added peace of mind, you can protect confidential business information while helping to ensure people can view the data they need with report management features. Using Office SharePoint Server 2007, your organization's IT staff can set up and manage Data Connection Libraries that enable people to more safely connect to external data sources without assistance. For added flexibility, you can also use the Excel Services Web services application programming interface (API) to integrate server calculation of Excel files into other applications.
