Default web discussions for excel 2007

Hi Jerry

This was new to me also, but I had a slightly different take on what it
does, but I may be totally wrong here.
It seemed to me, that it was a collaborative tool, that allowed you to
publish your workbook to a server, and then have multiple people access
and comment on the work.

As far as I can tell, this as a toolbar option has been removed from
XL2007.
Maybe the option from Office buttonPublishDocument Management Server
or Create Document Management Workspace is what will give the OP the
same type of functionality.

I have no access to Sharepoint Services, and I have yet to investigate
the use of Groove, to see what it offers in the way of collaborative
work.

Gord,
It was actually new to me also! I followed the path from the OP info
and
what I ended up with was a new toolbar associated with web discussions
displayed in the Excel window - that's as far as I got with it.
Appears at
that point you then subscribe to a discussion group with it much as
you would
with a usergroup or news group reader. Interesting.

Where and when is this feature available in 2003?

What have I been missing<g

Mandy,
Besides the excellent on-line tool that Bernard provided a link to,
for
those times when you don't have access to a connection, Microsoft
also has an
Excel workbook you can download that maps 2003-to-2007 commands
available and
you can get that through this link:
