@Steven Collier You told someone above this: "You wont see the Excel ribbon unless you are editing the document, hit the Edit in Teams button at the top."
But that's not true. Someone attached an Excel file to a chat, and when I clicked on it, an editing ribbon showed up with it right within Teams. This function has stopped working for me with Word (docx) documents. When I open Word doc uploaded to a chat, a white stripe of nothing appears where the ribbon is in the pic below.
@Steven Collier It works perfectly fine here, see below. I was trying to see if the problem might be that your network etc was blocking the place that the Word web app comes from, in which case it wouldn't work for a new document, or if it was more likely there was something unusual about your local Word files. If you aren't interested I suggest you go raise a support request.
This is what it looks like when I select "edit in Teams" to an uploaded word doc. When I click the "edit" button, it kicks us out of Teams to open the doc in the online version of Word. Just an extra step, but has been a little troublesome to those with slower computers. If this is how it supposed to work, fine. It just would be a nicer experience to edit within the Teams window. The "view only" message is new.
