Get to Copilot in Excel faster
We’ve added a new Copilot button that lets you access Copilot from anywhere on the grid, so that you can stay in your flow. This button will appear next to your cell selection, and can be activated at anytime to see a list of suggestions. Selecting any of these options will open the Copilot side pane and automatically run that prompt as if you had typed it manually. And if you don’t need the Copilot icon, you can hide it until the file is reopened. This feature is currently rolling out to Windows and web users. Read more here >
