Have tried multiple ways can't get Georgia counties to map in Georgia (USA).
Have tried multiple ways can't get Georgia counties to map in Georgia (USA). At least finally got it to map in the United States and not all over the world! When I look at the cards of the ones mapping elsewhere, they say the right location so really confused.Solved2KViews0likes4CommentsLinks to Excel documents on SharePoint are downloading instead of opening in app or browser
I was posting about this on a different thread but was asked to start a new feed (https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/office-365/links-to-sharepoint-document-in-excel-opens-in-browser/td-p/183028#.XtUCofR6gAE.link) If I provide a link to an Excel file stored on SharePoint via e-mail, Teams, Skype, etc., the file downloads and does not open in the native app (like it used to). I am using the direct link, not the SharePoint provided link. I know I can add ?web=1 to the link to force it to open in the browser and that is what I am doing (when I remember) for now. The whole point in putting an Excel file on SharePoint is to allow us to collaborate on the same file and not have to collate information from different people who have downloaded and edited the file and sent it to me (!) (Note: the fact that I am getting files sent to me like this is evidence this is happening to others, as well, and not isolated to my computer or my settings.) I have not checked this with Word or PowerPoint. I do not understand why this behavior is happening. It cannot be browser dependent as it is downloading. It may be SharePoint library settings but I can only find settings to force it to open in app or browser NOT download? Any help to prevent downloading as default is appreciated.20KViews0likes7CommentsLinks to files on SharePoint are now downloading, not opening in native app?!
Links to files on SharePoint are now downloading, not opening in native app?! Which means when I planned to collaborate data from different people in ONE file, I got back a bunch of separate files I then had to re-consolidate. So now I have to add "?Web=1: to the end of the URL, people have to click that and then click "Open in Desktop App" in order to have full functionality. Way to break collaboration. If you come back and tell me that everyone can configure that individually, that defeats the whole collaboration purpose because some will set to download and some will edit the shared document. A document link should not download when clicked unless it has a qualifier like "?download=1" or something 😞 This is on SPO.2.4KViews0likes3Comments
