<p class="MsoNormal">CSTSWG colleagues ---<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have come across a problem with the CWE that prevents me from downloading an Excel file as it was originally uploaded. If this is a general problem (and not just something to do with my computer’s configuration) we may have to alter our
expectations of being able to use the CWE as a transparent file transfer mechanism.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Holger recently provided me with the link to the FR work plan spreadsheet on the CWE:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">The FR work table is here:</span>
<br>
<a href="https://cwe.ccsds.org/css/docs/CSS-CSTS/CWE%20Private/Functional%20Resources%20Definition/fr_work_table.xlsx?Web=1"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">https://cwe.ccsds.org/css/docs/CSS-CSTS/CWE%20Private/Functional%20Resources%20Definition/fr_work_table.xlsx?Web=1</span></a>
<br>
<br>
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When I attempted to retrieve that document, two thing happened:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><![if !supportLists]><span style="mso-list:Ignore">1.<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"">
</span></span><![endif]>It opened it in Excel Online with a warning that the spreadsheet contains material that Excel Online can’t display<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph" style="text-indent:-.25in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><![if !supportLists]><span style="mso-list:Ignore">2.<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"">
</span></span><![endif]>When I then tried to download it, I got a warning that essentially said that the original document can’t be downloaded, only a version that is stripped of the material that Excel Online can’t display.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I used to be able to go into the CWE directories/folders and directly download any document stored there, but that capability disappeared for MS-extensioned files (.doc, .docx, .xlsx, etc.) sometime in the past year (possibly as a result
of an “upgrade” of the CWE Sharepoint software). Now I can only download any MS-formatted document (Word, Excel, or PowerPoint) by first having it open in the associated “Online” app (feature?) and then download it. [However, I can still directly download
non-MS-branded files (e.g., .pdf).]<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So far, those extra steps to download MS-extensioned files (compared to what I used to be able to do) have been annoying but at least I could get to the full document that was uploaded. But now it looks like that may not be the case for
all MS-extensioned documents. I did a little bit of research on the MS Online functions and they look like they are dumbed down versions of their associated full-blown applications.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For those of you that are using Windows computers, are you seeing this same behavior? That is, are you only able to download MS-extensioned files by first opening them in the associated MS Online app?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you for any help that you can provide.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Best regards,<o:p></o:p></p>
