The update (Version: 16.0.6868.2067) released on 23rd May for Office 365 clients consists of all security patches. The new update for Office 2016 (Version:16.0.6965.2053) that released on 6th June 2016, contains nine improved features for Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint, Skype for Business, Visio and Word. It also contains five non-security fixes for Excel and Office suite as listed below.

 

Feature Updates:

  • Excel now contains improved data transformation and data connectivity features for Power Query.
  • Outlook will now have a simplified UI experience for setting up additional Outlook profiles for Office 365 mailboxes. This will not be available for all users at this moment but will be rolled out in a phase. Microsoft mentioned that, people working in a same organization may get this feature update at different time.
    Now multiple users will be able to edit different elements in a PowerPoint SmartArt graphic at the same time.
  • Offline messaging comes to Skype for business. People can now send messages to the recipient even though they are not signed-in.
  • You can now preload attachments for a Skype for Business meeting when you set up your online meeting in Outlook. You can also attach a file that is in the cloud, such as in OneDrive for Business. However, the file won't be loaded from the cloud location until the meeting starts.
  • You will be allowed to import AutoCAD 2010 and AutoCAD 2013 files as well as overlay shapes, text and data graphics in Visio.
  • If you want Visio’s drawing scale to match the drawing scale of an imported AutoCAD drawing, you can now do so.
  • In Visio, you will now be able to import AutoCAD files faster when working with shapes on top of an AutoCAD drawing.
  • In MS Word, buttons appear in the Comment balloon to allow you to easily reply resolve or reopen a comment.

Non-security updates:

  • Fix a caching issue that caused some Office 2013 licensing and program installation information to be deleted prior to a Microsoft-initiated upgrade from the Office 2013 version of an Office 365 client.
  • Fix an issue where data validation drop-down lists get corrupted and duplicate themselves in Excel workbooks with multiple worksheets.
  • Fix an issue where file associations are lost for Excel when uninstalling an earlier version of Office from the computer.
  • Fix an issue where Excel occasionally leaves behind a temporary file after the file is saved.
  • Fix an issue where calling a method or property on a deleted worksheet causes Excel to crash instead of showing an error that the object couldn't be found on that worksheet.
