Chapter 6. Using Document Libraries with Word

With the exception of lists, Word provides the same SharePoint features that Excel does. In fact, creating workspaces, adding documents, members , alerts, and tasks are all done the same way through the Shared Documents task pane in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.

However, you'll rely on some SharePoint features more in Word than in Excel. In particular, document libraries are of key importance. This chapter shows how to use document libraries to create, organize, revise , and approve or reject Word documents.

Remember, you can use document libraries with any type of document (Excel, PowerPoint, web page, etc.), but it's hard to have a discussion in such general terms. I hope you'll find this practical approach useful and be able to apply it to other applications as well.
