How do I download the videos?
- To download, right click the file type you would like and pick “Save target as…” or “Save link as…”
Why should I download videos from Channel9?
- It's an easy way to save the videos you like locally.
- You can save the videos in order to watch them offline.
- If all you want is to hear the audio, you can download the MP3!
Which version should I choose?
- If you want to view the video on your PC, Xbox or Media Center, download the High Quality WMV file (this is the highest quality version we have available).
- If you'd like a lower bitrate version, to reduce the download time or cost, then choose the Medium Quality WMV file.
- If you have a Zune, WP7, iPhone, iPad, or iPod device, choose the low or medium MP4 file.
- If you just want to hear the audio of the video, choose the MP3 file.
Right click “Save as…”
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
- WMV (WMV Video)
This is a second, deeper look at Excel 2007's business intelligence capabilities (Mike Arcuri was on Channel 9 a few weeks ago). Really cool stuff for helping your business see what is happening.
The demos start at 6:15 into this video. Really great stuff, if you are an Excel freak, don't miss!

Mike has a "ship it" award, I wonder what product that is for?
Has the number-of-columns-limit been changed already or not?
You get 16,384 columns and 1,048,576 rows now.
No, I was bored out of my mind! Heheh.
Sorry, I get excited by charts and graphs.
Yeah, I've noticed you seem somewhat partial to some productivity apps, which is understandable given your occupation . Keep it up!
Oh, and try to teach your camera-steadying techniques to whoever shot that previous video...
Just a thought.
Keep up the work.
I'm looking forward to the next Office 12 videos! Thank you for this video, Scoble!
What OpenOffice compatibility?
You can apply DRM to any office document today, on Office 2003.
Uh? With an open file format how can they disallow other apps to read the files?
"better alternative(s)"? Such as...?
When's the last time Mike got a day off and more than 5 hours sleep? Looks like he could use a vacation.
I have a questions about the new table cell naming (ie where cell refrences like $E2 are replaced with names like [2004 prices] (http://channel9.msdn.com/Showpost.aspx?postid=177827&pvrid=269).
If I build a table in Excel 07 and my formulas are automaticaly translated this way. What happens when somebody attempts to open the sheet in Excel '03?
PIVOTtables are in '03, but the table example he uses is new to '07. the closest thing to the Table in '03 is the ListObject, but the Table in '03 is a major step up from that.
and you can't change formulas in PivotTables anyway.
dahowlett - If you're interested in using charts and Excel information in web portals, that will be possible with Excel Services in Office 2007. You may want to watch some of my earlier Channel 9 video, and look at some of the Excel Services posts on the Excel blog to learn more.
TrayJoe - If I look sleepy it's because of the 5 month old boy and 2.5 year old girl at home.
ohgood - Looks like you've gotten some replies on your post already. There are new file formats for Office 2007, but they will be fully documented and open XML. I'm sure other products that read Office 2003 files will add support for these new formats in no time. Plus, people will still be able to save files in the older formats. If you have more quesitons, you might follow up Brian Jones (at his Office 2007 file format blog: http://blogs.msdn.com/brian_jones/).
Andretzu and Simo - We're being very careful about backward compatability with older versions of Excel. For answers to these specific questions, you may want to ask David Gainer (at his Excel 2007 blog: http://blogs.msdn.com/excel/)
