closing Documents in Teams, returning to Root Directory
Hi Marc_MKH ,
You are very good at English considering it is not your native language, so no problem. I am embarrassed to say that I am a typical Englishmen who relies on everyone else speaking English. I know what can you do with us.
However the crucial bit of info was the fact you were linking to other SharePoint locations by way of adding cloud storage.
I can unfortunately confirm that this just seems to be the way when linking to a SharePoint library in this manner, however and maybe not ideal. But this is not a problem if you add the library as a tab, rather than a link in the Files tab. In this scenario it will stick to the the path you were within.
I also found this user voice that might be worth a vote on: https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/34700860-working-with-files-folders-in-cloud-storage-likeThanks

Yes this is it ! It works, i have now a tab named Documents. One thing that changed is that now i have a different Excell App within Teams. ( see 2 screenshots) This Excell App seems better but i cant find the "close" Button.
Hi Marc_MKH ,
So I presume we are talking about the second screenshot as the first one has a close towards the top right.
As for the second it looks to me like you have added a tab directly to an Excel document, so to close is effectively to move away from that tab as the tab is the document. To close the document would be essentially needing to remove the tab.
I have to ask and I am glad you are happy and if it works it works. But are you using an Excel spreadsheet for your Calendar.
If so I would still strongly look into Microsoft Lists or a SharePoint list. Or even consider something like Planner if you are wanting to manage tasks as a Team.
Also just for completeness you could also add a SharePoint Document library as a tab, that contains the Excel document, that way you would get the usual close.
Also you could just pin the document, so have it in say Files and do this sort of thing:
Looks like this above all other docs:
You also get the option to make any document a tab more easily doing this:
Thanks

Thank you Henry,
I used the Document Library Tab it works , just less options on the Right Mouse click.
But its much easyer to work now.
The example in Excell from Generel to TechCommunity has no Reaction in my App , maybe i have some bugs in the App.
Thank you for all your Help Henry
Hi Marc_MKH ,
The only way I can get an Excel Web version like your second screenshot is to interface with it via SharePoint directly.
So I would comeback to the tab if you want the more familiar experience and choose a tab of type SharePoint Document Library and Not SharePoint (that gives you the options to reference a Page or List).
So this one:
But in the other instance if it works, you essentially just click back or away from it or comeback in the breadcrumb trail:So for example I am in an XLSX within the General Folder of the TechCommunity library. So I could just click on TechCommunity to go back to the level where the document is housed or leave.
Thanks

yes the second screenshot is what i have now.
i made a tab "documents" where i see all the Folders , when i go in a Folder and open an excell sheet,
its like in the second screenshot and i can not go back, i have not made a tab from only one document.
the Calendar is not related with Excell, just trying to get this done first.
When i made the Tab Teams askes me to enter a Link from Sharepoint, i pasted the Adress from Sharepointsite where i can see all my Folders.
