When I try to open or save a document in Microsoft Office Word 2013, I have the option of having SkyDrive accounts as cloud locations. However, most of my colleagues and I use Dropbox.
Is it possible to add Dropbox folders to the available cloud locations on Microsoft Office World 2013?
Hi Amelia , Yes .In the new office 2013 dropbox and google drive can be added . To add dropbox just follow the instruction
