Excel

New feature:

XLOOKUP function

XLOOKUP is the successor to the iconic VLOOKUP function! It named for its ability to look both vertically and horizontally (yes it replaces HLOOKUP too!). In its simplest form, XLOOKUP needs just 3 arguments to perform the most common exact lookup (one fewer than VLOOKUP). Let’s consider its signature in the simplest form:

XLOOKUP(lookup_value,lookup_array,return_array)

• lookup_value: What you are looking for
• lookup_array: Where to find it
• return_array: What to return

New feature:

Save an illustration or a slide as SVG

SVG is a vector-based image that does not use pixels to render; instead it uses vectors. Save an illustration such as a chart, a shape, an icon, or some ink, or even a slide, as a scalable vector graphic (SVG) to generate a cleaner and sharper image.

OBSERVAÇÃO: If you are saving a raster image (isto é. PNG or JPEG) as SVG, the image will be read as an SVG file but will still render as a raster image.

How to enable the feature:

Save an illustration as SVG

1. Right-click the illustration you want to save, clique Save as Picture
2. Clique Scalable Vector Graphic Format in the Save as type list
3. Clique Salvar.

New feature:

Apply sensitivity labels to your documents

You asked for it! Keep your documents, worksheets, presentations, and emails compliant with your organization’s information protection policies by applying sensitivity labels.

You no longer need to manually apply encryption, or manually insert headers or footers into documents to state how sensitive they are, por exemplo. Agora, all you need to do is apply a Sensitivity label (like “General” or “Highly Confidential”), and the Microsoft Information Protection platform will do the rest (based on policies IT administrators create).

How to enable the feature:

• In the Lar tab in Word , Excel, and PowerPoint, ou o Message tab in Outlook, click the Sensitivity botão, and choose the label you want.
