Not available in Word for the web.

Clipboard

Editing in browser

In Editing view you can cut, copy, and paste text and pictures within the document by selecting text or a picture just as you do in the Word desktop application. Press CTRL+C to copy, CTRL+X to cut, or CTRL+V to paste the text or picture (Windows); or press ⌘+C, ⌘+X, or ⌘+V (Mac).

Pasting from outside Word for the web

Pictures you copy from the web can be pasted in the document, but Word for the web doesn’t support pasting pictures that are copied from other documents or programs.

Tables and lists

When you paste text that is formatted outside Word for the web as rows and columns or as sub-items in a list, the table or hierarchical structure does not appear in the pasted text.

Hyperlinks

Hyperlinks are pasted as static text. To reconstruct the link do the following after pasting it:

You can use Excel for the web to view data connections, but you can't create external data connections using Excel for the web.

Drag and drop cells

You can move cell value in Excel for the web by dragging and dropping cells from one place to another.

Draw cell borders

Add a border, border color, or border line style1. Select the cell or range of cells that you want to add a border around, change the border style

on, or remove a border from.2. Click Home > the Borders arrow, and then pick the border option you want.

Add a border color - Click the Borders arrow > Border Color, and then pick a color

Add a border line style - Click the Borders arrow > Border Style, and then pick a line style option.

Tips

The Borders button shows the most recently used border style. To apply that style, click the Borders button (not the arrow).

If you apply a border to a selected cell, the border is also applied to adjacent cells that share a bordered cell boundary. For example, if you apply a box border to enclose the range B1:C5, the cells D1:D5 will acquire a left border.

If you apply two different types of borders to a shared cell boundary, the most recently applied border is displayed.

A selected range of cells is formatted as a single block of cells. If you apply a right border to the range of cells B1:C5, the border is displayed only on the right edge of the cells C1:C5.

If you want to print the same border on cells that are separated by a page break, but the border appears on only one page, you can apply an inside border. This way, you can print a border at the bottom of the last row of one page and use the same border at the top of the first row on the next page. Do the following:1. Select the rows on both sides of the page break.2. Click the arrow next to Borders, and then click the Inside Horizontal Border

Remove a border

To remove a border, select the cells with the border and click the Borders arrow > No Border.

You can add, change, and delete parts of your formula in the browser just like you would in the Excel desktop app. Excel for the web highlights the formula's arguments with colors that provide a visual mapping between the formula and the data on the worksheet.
