After you send your sharing invitation, each person will also receive an email message that

contains a link to your file. Clicking the link will open the file in the corresponding Office
Web App. For example, if the file is a Word document, it will open in Word Web App.

TIP You can change or remove sharing permissions for a user after the invitations have
been sent. To do so, open your shared file and in the Backstage view, on the Share page,
right-click the person to view the change and remove options.

Opening files from the cloud

After you have saved files on SharePoint Online or on SkyDrive, you essentially use the same
steps for opening a file from the cloud as you would for saving files to the cloud.

In the previous exercise, you opened My First Word 2013 Document from your Recent
Documents list. In this exercise, you’ll open the document by using the Open dialog box.

SET UP All of the steps in the exercise from the “Saving files on SharePoint Online and
SkyDrive” section earlier in this chapter need to be completed. Start Word if necessary,
and follow the steps.

TIP The steps for opening files from the cloud also apply to Access, Excel, OneNote,
PowerPoint, and Publisher.

1 Click the File tab and then click Open.
