-Emerson- · Jun 13, 2020

Please tell me why you changed this - i just want to open hte prog in full and you are forcing me to go through other screens to get to it - its so frustrating that you change things that are working perfectly and then make it impossible to find out to reverse them

I want to click on the Word icon and open word - NOT an interim screen with a list of documents

PLEASE HELP THIS IS PAINFUL

:)

@mentions for comments in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint available

Hello! My name is Apurv, and I’m a Program Manager in Microsoft Office.

What’s New

We recently added the capability to @mention your collaborators in comments in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. @mentions makes it easier for you to notify your peers, pull them into a document, and work together wherever you need their attention.

JLKZpQ0JTQM

How it Works

To get started, simply make a comment and type @ in a file saved on SharePoint or OneDrive for Business. You’ll see a drop-down list of contacts that updates as you type more characters. Pick a name and finish writing your comment. To be more casual, feel free to delete everything except the person's first name in the @mention. To include more people, type @ again and mention someone else.

Word, Excel, and PowerPoint will automatically send an email notification to whoever you tag with a link to the specific comment. This link will open in the Online version of the apps or directly in the iOS/Android app. If someone gets mentioned more than once, we’ll batch the emails together.

Requirements & Known Limitations

You must be using Office 365.

The file must be saved in SharePoint or OneDrive for Business.

Tenants with conditional access will not be able to create @mentions. Please contact your IT Administrator for more information.

If you’re using the desktop version of Word, Excel, or PowerPoint (i.e. on Windows or Mac), you have to have configured and signed in to your Office 365 email account.

@mentions does not work with guest or external accounts (you cannot @mention such accounts nor can such accounts @mention in files outside of their tenant). You can still share with them directly.
