Work with Backstage View
Y
ou can use Backstage view to manage files
and program options. Backstage view is new
to Excel 2010 as well as other Office 2010
products. Backstage view replaces the menu that
appeared in Excel 2007 when you clicked the Office
button. The Office button is also gone from Excel
2010 and other Office 2010 programs; the File tab
appears in place of the Office button in Excel 2010
and all Office 2010 programs.
A list of actions — commands — appears down the left
side of Backstage view. For example, from Backstage
view, you can open, save, and close Excel files. You
also can display information about the workbook
on-screen in Excel when you open Backstage view,
such as file size and the date last modified.
From Backstage view, you can also print and distribute
documents; however, before sharing, you might want
to remove sensitive information. Finally, from Backstage
view, you can set Excel program behavior options.
For more on opening, saving, and closing workbooks,
see Chapter 2. See Chapter 8 for more on printing
and Chapter 29 for more on sharing workbooks.
