Last week, Microsoft started rolling out the first preview build of Microsoft Office version 2108 to the Office Insiders who are in the Windows Beta Channel. That build (14301.20004) added a new feature to the Outlook client allowing you to turn off suggested replies if you are not happy with it.
This week the company released a new build (14312.20008) for Microsoft Office version 2108 that adds another new feature to the Outlook client and a set of few fixes for Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel.
What's new in Outlook
Link to Create Outlook.com Account
- When adding an account to Outlook, a link to create a new Outlook.com account now appears in the window.
What's new in Word
- We fixed an issue where proofing settings didn’t persist.
- We fixed an issue where bullets could disappear from text during co-authoring.
- We fixed an issue related to saving files.
What's new in Excel
- We fixed an issue where small data markers disappeared when the spreadsheet zoomed out.
- We fixed an issue where a different workbook was opened when a workbook had to be closed and re-opened because it was modified and checked in by a different user.
- We fixed an issue for protected files with no label metadata; the label is determined by the protection. Mandatory labeling now uses label metadata and label policy.
