wired.com Justin Pot 2026-03-17 07:00:00

I don't use Microsoft Office very often. I do most of my writing in Obsidian and my number crunching in Google Sheets. Every once in a while, though, someone who does use Office sends me a Word document or an Excel spreadsheet. What do I do if I want to open it, make edits, and send it back?
