Microsoft Excel, one of the high utility office applications has got its upgraded successor, Microsoft Excel 2010.

There has been some major upgradation and feature additions in Microsoft Excel 2010 compared to its older version. We have described the office 2010 features in-brief here and about Microsoft Word 2010 here. We have listed Microsoft Excel 2010 features below.

1.Microsoft Excel 2010 spreadsheets can now run in the browser

In this release, Microsoft Excel 2010 has got its online counterpart, which enables its users to open and edit excel spreadsheets in web browser as well. This goes straight against Google spreadsheets, and it is proven now that Microsoft Excel Browser version is more feature-rich than Google spreadsheets. You can publish your excel spreadsheet on web through the desktop version itself.

2. Sparklines feature

Microsoft Excel 2010 brings along a new feature called Sparklines, which gives a visual snapshot image of the data trends within a single cell. This feature makes charting different data ranges in one spreadsheet much easier. It also makes it easier to get a rough idea of data trends. This feature has been added, mainly as a commercial utility but it can be useful for students for research purposes.

3. Online collaboration

With Microsoft Excel 2010, we can also share our spreadsheets via the browser with other users and set special permissions for access rights of various collaborating users. Such a collaborative feature can really help Mobile businesses to work together on a single spreadsheet at any given time

In future, we would give information about Powerpoint 2010, Outlook 2010 and other office applications.
