Learning new Microsoft Office tricks in "just a minute"
This is a good tip that Sandra sent my way today… Have you ever wanted to create a SharePoint page that didn’t have the normal page header at the top? It had been possible with using some hacks and workarounds, but now you can do it as part of editing your page in the browser. Here’s how that works…
If you struggle with coming up with nice layouts on your SharePoint Pages, the new Design Ideas feature will be of interest to you. It can help you come up with design options that you may not have thought of (or like me, are incapable of). Here’s how that works…

It used to be when you’d share a file in SharePoint or OneDrive, that link was valid until such time as you removed the person from the access to the file. Now you can simply set an expiration date on the link, and they will no longer be able to access the file after that date. Here’s how that works…
