What SharePoint 2013 doesn't support for Excel

Hi,
it seems that SharePoint 2013 continues to don't support the same Excel features as SharePoint 2010. Fe, macro, data validation, cell editing, etc.
This is a bad notice for who use SharePoint as delivery platform for BI needs.
Now, I'd like to know what SharePoint 2013 has improved to support Excel and what new releases will support?
Thanks

I think these articles may help:

  • Support for Excel 2010?

    At what point does Oracle plan to add support for Excel 2010 (including 64 bit) to IOP?
    11.1.2.0 supports Excel 2003 SP1 and Excel 2007.
    Thank you.

    It will be supported in future release and we dont have specific dates or releases yet.

    They're probably just interested in getting $ from you, there are several companies who advertise in a way that suggests 'official' support for all sorts of things. Unfortunately, if they had access as you describe, they potentially could have installed other software and/or read any of your files.
    Ideally - change all passwords for email/banking/login & restore a backup from before this happened.

  • Why MBA (Mid - 2013) doesn't support with Bose Headphones for Audio Input

    I just bought two MBA 11(mid - 2013)  and MBA 13 (mid - 2013) two week ago and I found out that it doesn't support bose audio headphone (MIE2i mobile headphone) for audio input. So I am having experience for audio input with it. When I am having skype or recording, the voice go slient if i use that headphone as external microphone. All of my friends who are skyping with me can't heard my voice if i am doing skype with my MBA.  Audio output is fine though, you can hear as usual in headphones. Internal microphone works though,  but it is not good for privacy though.
    Thus, I went to apple store (Five ave) to trouble shoot about it, they said that is because Bose has noise cancelling, (BUT Bose MIE2i doesn't have noise cancelling though). They gave me two ear buds of apple ipod (one is outdate version & another one is latest version - that representative sucked, because she doesn't value the customer, she gave me outdate ear-buds, but i didn't urge with 3 dollars ear-buds), apple ear-bud works for audio input and output, however apple ipod ear buds are suck, it hurts the ears all time if you wear for 1 hrs. that's why I use quality headphone such as Bose headphones. Unfortunately, my bose headphone is not compatible at all.
    Is there any one having experiences with audio input with your headphones when you are using skype or audio recording. Which headphone is compatible with your MBA for input/output?

    The MacBook Air has a single headphone port. The microphone or headset in question must be of the three-ring variety, just like Apple’s headsets ......, the Macbook Air has the “headset” port,  not a conventional 2-ring mic and speaker port.
    Many are using this,

    Youre likely going to need to get a USB headset to use with your Air.   OR, standard headphones plus a USB Mic.

  • (BUG??) Team Foundation Server 2013 Update 4 Support for SQL 2014

    Scenario: On Windows 2012 R2 x64 I have installed SQL, Reporting Services & AS 2014 (applied all updates through Windows Update), SharePoint 2013 Foundation, and installed Team Foundation Server 2013 RTM (did not configure).
    Before configuring TFS, I applied Update 4 to the server (not update 1,2 or 3 directly). When trying to configure I get the following error:
    ==========================
    TF255146: Team Foundation Server requires SQL Server 2012 SP1 (11.00.3000) or greater. The SQL Server instance you supplied is version 12.0.2254.0.
    TF400403: The Report Server instance specified is version 12.0.2254.0, the minimum supported version is 11.0.3000.
    TF400070: A required version of a component is not installed on the application tier. You must exit the Team Foundation Administration Console and install a supported version of either SQL Server Analysis Services of the SQL Server Client Tools on the application
    tier to ensure that the Analysis Services object model is present for warehouse processing.
    ====================================
    My understanding is that as of Update 2 (or was it 3) that SQL 2014 was supported. However it appears if that particular update is not installed directly it bypasses the check. Can someone verify I am seeing the intended result or is this a bug?

  • Sharepoint 2013 obtain alternative value for outcome local variable

      When a user either rejects or accepts a task that they have been assigned
    to in the 'start a process action task, the outcome local variable value is either 0 or 1.    Right now I am updating a custom list with the value obtained from the local variable called 'outcome'. Is there a way to obtain the outcome value
    as 'rejected' or 'accepted' instead of 0 or 1? If so can you tell me how to change the outcome values?

    Hi wendy,
    For your issue, you can add a condition in your workflow as below:
    Then you can update a custom list with 'rejected' or 'accepted' based on the value obtained from the local variable called 'outcome'.
    Another way, you can create a custom Task Outcome with the value you want to use:

    Both Work and Excel work fine for me. Of course I use the 2008 and 2011 versions. 2004 will never work.

  • Enable Sharepoint 2013 SkyDrive Pro Synch for some site

    Good day,
    How do you enable SkyDrive pro for some libraries, i have only found the switch that enables for all or for none. Can this be configured via Powershell ? and how thanks

    Hi Franciske,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to sync multiple SharePoint 2013 libraries with SkyDrive Pro.
    For enabling SkyDrive Pro for some SharePoint libraries, you can click ‘SYNC’ at the top of SharePoint web site, then you can select which library is synchronized to SkyDrive Pro. Or you can use SkyDrive Pro directly by right-clicking it and selecting ‘Sync
    a new library’, then type the URL of the library that you want to sync.
    You only sync one library to SkyDrive Pro at once time. So , for synchronizing multiple libraries, you need to sync multiple times.
    More information, please refer to the links:

  • SharePoint 2013 allows downloaded even for users with "view only" permissions

    I have a new on premises SharePoint 2013 server and assigned a single user "view only" rights to a document library. In the "permission levels" window, this permission is described as "Can view pages, list items,
    and documents. Document types with server-side file handlers can be viewed in the browser but not downloaded."
    Once I gave the user that permission, I noticed he was able to view documents in the library but the "but not downloaded" part does not seem to be working. The user can still download documents to his local desktop and SharePoint does not prevent
    it. The "download a copy" option appears and the user can use it.
    My goal is to make all documents in this library such that users can only view them in the browser and not download a local copy. How I do that?
    Thanks for your help.

    Not entirely positive :-) 
    However, you have no server-side handlers in place today without WAC installed, so that portion of the View Only permission wouldn't be applicable.
    Note that WAC must be installed on its own server and if your SharePoint server is extranet or public facing, it needs to have a valid, public SSL certificate. Also, WAC should always be run over SSL regardless if it is public facing or not as the token
    sent between the SharePoint server and WAC is the same as having a username and password for the user making the request.

  • SharePoint 2013 SQL Server Edition for BI Features - must be on SharePoint SQL Server?

    I need to install SQL Server 2012 for a new SharePoint 2013 installation.
    Let's say I want to use the BI features of SharePoint 2013 like PowerView.
    I already have a separate SQL Server running SQL Server 2012 BI Edition that is used as the database server for our data warehouse and some apps.  But this SQL Server will not be used to house the SharePoint 2013 databases.
    Do I need to install SQL Server 2013 BI Edition on the SharePoint 2013 SQL Server (where the SharePoint 2013 databases will be housed) or can I used SQL Server 2013 Standard Edition on that server and utilize the BI Edition on the data warehouse server to
    use the BI features of SharePoint?

    Yes, BI or Enterprise must be installed on the SharePoint server in order to integrate SSRS. PowerPivot can be on a separate server with just a download (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35577) for certain components residing on
    the SharePoint server. This will give you PowerView, as well.

  • Support for excel expression

    SSRS 2005 had support for putting in expressions in VB.Net which was maintained in the excel file exported from SSRS. This feature was taken out in SSRS 2008. Is this included in 2012?

    Hi Trigent,
    According to the documents below, I think the function is not included in SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services. Please see them:

  • Sharepoint 2013 ItemAdded event receiver for renaming files is not working

    In SP 2013 I coded an event receiver that intercepts the ItemAdded event and it just renames the file.
    It is a synchronous event (I added <Synchronization>Synchronous</Synchronization> in the Elements.xml).
    This is the code:
            public override void ItemAdded(SPItemEventProperties properties)
                SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()
                    try
                        OutputDebugStringA("Inside ItemAdded");
                        string szHttpUrl = properties.WebUrl + "/" + properties.AfterUrl;
                        SPWeb openedWeb = properties.Web.Site.OpenWeb(properties.Web.ID);
                        SPFile spf = openedWeb.GetFile(szHttpUrl);
                        EventFiringEnabled = false;
                        string szUrl = properties.AfterUrl;
                        szUrl = szUrl + ".renamed";
                        string szNewFileName;
                        if (szUrl.LastIndexOf('\\') != -1) szNewFileName = szUrl.Substring(szUrl.LastIndexOf('\\') + 1);
                        else if (szUrl.LastIndexOf('/') != -1) szNewFileName = szUrl.Substring(szUrl.LastIndexOf('/') + 1);
                        else szNewFileName = szUrl;
                        if (properties.ListItem != null)
                            properties.ListItem["Title"] = szNewFileName;
                            properties.ListItem.Update();
                        spf.MoveTo(szUrl);
                        EventFiringEnabled = true;
                        base.ItemAdded(properties);
                        OutputDebugStringA("Renaming to " + szUrl);
                    catch (System.Exception exception)
                        OutputDebugStringA("ItemAdded ERROR: " + exception.ToString());
    The problem is that when I upload a .txt file using Internet Explorer, just after the renaming is done, IE says that something went wrong and when I inspect the log files I see:
    SPRequest.GetFileAndFolderProperties: UserPrincipalName=i:0).w|s-1-5-21-4050800873-4278272723-3073177257-500, AppPrincipalName= ,bstrUrl=http://sp2013/sites/demo/subsite1 ,bstrStartUrl=Shared Documents/test2.txt ,ListDocsFlags=16400 ,bThrowException=True 0fa7689c-674b-5045-c3a2-b214a5d4cbed

    So it is clear that the fact that I renamed the file is causing an issue in the SharePoint upload logic.
    As a solution what I did was to not declare it as Synchronous, but if I do it then there is another error when Sharepoint shows the Edit Properties dialog... in this case the upload is OK but when it is time to show that Edit Property dialog IE fails and
    says that the file has been already modified, or that "something went wrong".
    If I use a synchronous event I get one problem. If I use the asynchronous event I get another problem... It's very frustating and I am pretty sure that a so important API like Event Receivers should have support renaming files so I hope someone can tell
    me what I am doing wrong.
    Thanks in advance

  • Powerpivot 2013 doesn't work on Excel 2013 / Office 365: data model issue

    Hi guys
    I recently upgraded my Office 2010 to Office 365, with Excel 2013. Before installing Office 365 I uninstalled Office 2010. I'm running Windows 8 64 bits.
    I have the Powerpivot 2013 add-in, I can activate it without any issue. However when I click on "manage" on any spreadsheet (including new empty ones) I have an error "We
    couldn't load the Data Model.  This may be because the Data Model in this workbook is damaged.", followed by "PowerPivot is unable to load the Data Model".
    I tried to repair the installation to no avail. I tried to launch excel in admin mode, nothing better.
    This issue seems to be shared by some other people on this forum but
    with no satisfactory answer so far.
    I had a SQL server 2012 plugin installed previously which I uninstalled as well, but no change.
    Would you think of something else?
    Thanks
