Microsoft confirmed on Tuesday that it will offer new versions of Word, Excel and PowerPoint that can run from within a standard web browser.
The browser-based editing capabilities, which the company plans to show off at its Professional Developers Conference in Los Angeles, are being developed in conjunction with the next version of Office, known as Office 14.
This slide shows how the browser-based product, slated to be released next year in a beta version, will let users view a Word document within Internet Explorer. If users want to make changes, they can open the document within the Word application itself or click to edit within the browser.
