      1Word 2013 Delivers Automatic Integration With SkyDrive

      1

      When you save a file from within Word 2013, you have the option of saving to your SkyDrive. The file is saved in a local folder managed by SkyDrive and also uploaded to your cloud SkyDrive.

      2Sharing Documents Through SkyDrive

      2

      SkyDrive’s collaboration features are integrated into Word 2013. By clicking Share, you can share the document with co-workers and friends. An email is sent to them with a link to the SkyDrive document.

      3Coordinating Document Changes

      3

      When two people are working together on the same document, any changes you make will show up with a vertical dashed line on the left. When you save, you receive the co-worker’s changes, which are given a green highlight.

      4Keeping Track of Who Is Working on a Document

      4

      In the lower left you can click a small icon to see who is working on the document. In this case, I’m editing the document both locally and from the Web version of office, so I see my name twice.

      5Locking out Conflicting Editing Changes

      5

      If two people try to edit the same words at the same time, the first person to save will have no problem, but the second person, upon saving, will see an Upload Failed message and a Resolve button.

      6Resolving Conflicting Document Changes

      6

      To resolve the conflicting changes, you’re given an option to accept or reject your own change, in a manner similar to the traditional Track Changes feature.

      7Office Confirms the Conflict Is Fixed

      7

      After you’ve resolved the changes, you see a message that “you’re good to go.”

      8Tracking File Uploads

      8

      The Upload Center is accessed from a tray icon and shows you any pending files that you need to upload. This will happen, for example, if there’s a connection problem.

      9Settings for File Uploads

      9

      The Upload Center includes some minor settings for configuration.

      10Working With Multiple SkyDrive Accounts

      10

      If you have multiple SkyDrive accounts, you can switch between them right from within Word by clicking your name, and then Switch Account. This will bring up a window that lets you log into your other Microsoft Live account.
