    Is it possible to allow embedding of SkyDrive docs? I know we did something for google docs. Embedding of SkyDrive would allow us to embed Office docs directly... including excel. Just trying to figure out a way to embed an excel sheet while maintaining conditional formatting.

    I know that SkyDrive also generates iframe codes for these documents. Can those be embedded or entered?

    They also generate an iframe for you, if you so desire: <iframe width="402" height="346" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" src="https://r.office.microsoft.com/r/rl...True&wdHideHeaders=True&wdDownloadButton=True"></iframe>

    You know you can use Google docs for exactly the same thing, right?

    A lot of the conditional formatting options from excel aren't available in google docs. Really what I was looking for:

    Google docs is pretty limited and frustrating. Would be real nice to have option of using excel and other docs. No idea how involved that is so ignore if I'm an idiot. Just my two cents on what would help beautify the place :)

    It's on my list to investigate, I've just got a pretty full development plate at the moment.

    Sorry for bumping an older thread, but I FULLY support Skydrive and Office Docs. Highly recommend it over Google Docs.
