This type of Office documents and their different formats, enable and facilitate the work in a number of companies, educational entities as well as personal use. These tools have been used by most of us more or less frequently and regardless of our level of knowledge. Knowing all the possibilities it offers, will help us to maximize its full potential and get the most out of its functions.
One of the features offered by Office, is the possibility of adding different add-ons. These add-ons can be found available for Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Project and SharePoint. Thanks to this type of add-ons, we will be able to perform a variety of actions such as translating a document directly from the network or scheduling an appointment etc, from the document itself.
Here we are going to show you how to add any of the add-ons available for Office, as well as how to use them. Once we have done this, we will be able to have each of these add-ons that we have added from our Office account. It means that it doesn't matter where we start the session since we will always have them on hand.
How to add add-ons to Office
If we want to add these complements to our documents, we will be able to do it in a very simple way and we will be facilitating the work. To do this we have to open one of the Office applications and select:
- Insert
- Accessories
- Store
Once we have accessed the store, we will be able to explore and learn about all the available accessories and thus select the one that interests us most.
If you want to know the complete list of all the add-ons available for Office applications, you can do so through this link that directs you to the official website of the Online store.
How to open add-ins in Office
After having investigated, once we have opted for any of the available add-ons, we have to select it and click on “trust” to give permission to the complement to access content within the application.
If we have selected the complement directly from the Office Store panel within the application, we will observe that it immediately appears on the right side of our document.
In the case that we are adding the complement from the Office store on the web, the thing changes a bit. The first thing to do is select the add-on and click on "add".
We must access with our Microsoft Office username and password. Once we have the complement, we have to go to the application in which we want to use it and select
- Insert
- Accessories
- My complements
Once we select it, we can already see it on the right side to be able to use it whenever we want within this document.
How to use the add-ons
The use of these add-ons is quite simple. As we have already indicated, depending on the ones we add, they will appear on the right side of our document. If we want to close them, we can do it with a simple click on the “X” icon located in the sidebar. Another option we have is to select it and turn it into a floating window in case it is more comfortable for us to work.
We can have more than one complement open at a time if we consider it necessary and we have enough space on our screen to work comfortably with all of them.
Once we have added this add-ons to our Office account, they will be associated with it so if we work on other computers or devices we will have quick access to all of them directly from the top menu in the "my add-ons" section.
Remember that having our documents protected is always important so that our information is safe. From office they offer us the possibility to be able to put directly from the Word and Excel application password to all those works that we do as well as to be able to automatically save the documents so that we do not lose them.
