Patent number: 10324592Abstract: Slicers are configured to filter tabular data arranged in columns. A user may use the slicers to filter tabular data from a client application and/or a server based application/service. Slicers may be created for one or more columns and for all/portion of the tabular data within a column. Selection of a slicer element filters the associated tabular data and updates a display of the other slicers. Interaction with the slicers may also update other user interface controls that filter the tabular data (e.g. selecting a slicer element changes a value of a filtering setting in a drop down menu and/or selecting the filtering setting in the drop down menu changes a state of a slicer element). A slicer element may be associated with other objects in the spreadsheet and/or included within one or more functions of a spreadsheet.Type: GrantFiled: July 28, 2016Date of Patent: June 18, 2019Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Johnny Sterling Campbell, Jenefer Monroe, Konrad Tupaj, Amarinder Singh Grewal, Robert George Hawking, Allan Folting

Publication number: 20100199185Abstract: A client application provides a user interface for defining a form that includes a navigation control. The navigation control includes two or more selectable tabs that are each associated with a target, such as another form or a report. When one of the selectable tabs on the navigation control is selected using an appropriate user input device, the target associated with the selected tab is displayed in the form. The client application also provides functionality for publishing a form including navigation controls to a server application, thereby making the form and the navigation control accessible through a Web interface.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 4, 2009Publication date: August 5, 2010Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Steven Miles Greenberg, Vitore Selca, Andrew Robert Miller, Stephen Lesser, Clinton Dee Covington, Ryan McMinn, Pavel R.

Patent number: 7752536Abstract: For standalone spreadsheet applications and/or Web-based spreadsheet services, the ability to designate, discover and set parameters for spreadsheet documents is provided. When creating a spreadsheet document, the ability to designate certain cells or ranges of cells as parameters to a spreadsheet is enabled. Furthermore, whether viewed in a standalone spreadsheet application or via a Web service, the ability to discover these parameters through the user interface or object model is provided. The ability to set or change these parameters one at a time or in bulk and drive the changes into the calculation model is also provided. Accordingly, whether viewed in a standalone spreadsheet application or via a Web rendering service, the effect of the parameters entered by the user can be calculated and viewed at once. The ability to suspend recalculation of a workbook until all relevant values, such as a current set of parameters, are obtained is also enabled.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2005Date of Patent: July 6, 2010Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Eran Megiddo, Daniel Y. Parish, Daniel Battagin, Robert L. Archer, Amarinder Singh Grewal, Justin Frederick Rockwood, Sean Boon
