Search (Task Pane)
As part of the Task Pane, the new search capabilities of Office XP make it simple to find text in a document. Users can also find files or folders—regardless of where they are stored—without needing to leave the document they are working on.
Furthermore, users can index the files on their machine. The result is faster and more comprehensive searches.
From within any Office application, click Search from the File Menu.
Or click the Search icon on the Standard toolbar. You can enter text in Indian languages in the Search space and be able to find docs that have been named accordingly in an Indian language.
Web Queries
When in Excel, users can easily access, analyze, and refresh data from the Web. When information from the Web is copied into Excel, a Smart Tag appears, giving users the option to create a refreshable query. Users can then manually refresh the data, or they can identify how often Excel should automatically refresh the data. Users can also create these Web Queries by simply dragging and dropping a Web page into Excel. Therefore, if you actually go to an Indian language site, you will be able to get Indian language matter and paste it in Excel and create a refreshable query, that updates your Indian language content.
- Go up to any Web site and copy the information you want to analyze.
- Paste the information into Excel.
- Select 'Create Refreshable Web Query' from the Smart Tag drop-down menu.
- Choose the table you want to import and click Import.
Media Gallery
Clip art images, sounds, photos, and animations are available on the Web and can be accessed from Office XP applications. The Clip-art gallery (Digital Gallery Live) contains 108 images specific to India.
- Example: From any of your Office applications, select Insert>Picture>Clip Art, and then do a search on 'India' from Clips On-line
Print from Browser
Users can print an HTML file from the original Office application in which it was created. If a user chooses to print an Office HTML file, Internet Explorer launches the appropriate application. This provides users with a significantly higher quality printing result.
- Open up the Office HTML file you want to print and select Print.
Notice that it prints from the original application from which it was created.
Web Options Compatibility
Office makes it easy for users to target a particular level of browser when creating documents for the Web. This is done via a new 'Browsers' tab in Web Options. This tab brings together all the browser-specific options. Users can choose their target browser from a drop-down menu and set specific browser options in their documents.
- Select Options from the Tools menu.
- On the general tab, select Web Options.
- On the Browsers tab, choose browser configuration.
Insert Hyperlink Dialog Box
Enhancements to the Insert Hyperlink dialog box make it easier for users to link to files in the Web pages they are working on. The dialog box shows a list of files and folders from the current folder in the Web page and allows users to switch to another open Web page. You may select Indian language text and add a Hyperlink.
- In any Office application, highlight the text to which you want to add a hyperlink.
- Select Insert>Hyperlink.
