Differences between Online Excel and Standard Excel are as follows:
- There are some mouse symbol differences but they work the same way.
- The Ribbon looks a little different since it does not include all of the feature icons that the Standard Excel Ribbon contains.
- By default, files are saved to the Cloud (Microsoft OneDrive) although a copy of the file can be downloaded and saved to the hard drive if desired.
