    Jim, thank you for your feedback! Please note that there’s no notion of content controls in Excel. Content controls feature is only available in Word.

    Also, the content control API is already available in Word Online. However, content controls are currently not editable in Word Online, and this is currently being worked on. We’ll keep you posted when this is available.

    Thanks!

    We currently use a single password for protecting a Word or Excel file. It would be very helpful if a single password could be use to protect or unprotect a Word or Excel opened in the Web version of Word and Excel. This would result in good compatibility of Excel and Word files moved or open on a desktop or Office 365 SharePoint or OneDrives.

  4. Provide a feature which enables to create the bindings to named range which has multiple ranges in it

    This would be very handy to do with the Web version as we are doing this now with the client version.
