Patent number: 11074112Abstract: Systems, methods, and software are disclosed herein for maintain the responsiveness of a user interface to an application. In an implementation, a synchronous operation is commenced on a main thread of an application. The application monitors for a request by an additional thread to interrupt the synchronous operation in favor of an asynchronous operation. The synchronous operation is canceled in response to the request and is retried after completing the asynchronous operation.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 2017Date of Patent: July 27, 2021Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Micah James Myerscough, Weide Zhong, Xiaohui Pan, Toshiharu Kawai, Emily Anne Schultz

Publication number: 20140136936Abstract: Spreadsheet functions are provided that enable interactivity with web services and manipulation of data retrieved from a web service call. One function takes a URL as an argument and performs an HTTP GET request asynchronously to return the response into the spreadsheet application. Another function URL encodes its argument. The URL encoded argument can then be used as part of the URL of the web service call. Yet another function is a filtering function that takes XML, JSON, HTML, and other forms of data that may be returned via a web service call to obtain specific data such as via an XPath standard when XML is used. These functions may be used together or separately.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 9, 2012Publication date: May 15, 2014Applicant: MICROSOFT CORPORATIONInventors: Keyur Rahul Patel, Shahar Prish, Shubho Sadhu, Lee William Bizek, Xiaohui Pan

Publication number: 20130145244Abstract: A quick analysis tool is configured to present one or more data analysis features that are tailored to the data in a selected portion of a spreadsheet document. The quick analysis tool may provide a quick analysis tool entry button, the selection of which causes a contextual user interface to be displayed. The contextual user interface facilitates a user to easily access one or more data analysis features. The quick analysis tool also provides a mechanism by which a user can preview and/or apply one or more of these data analysis features while bypassing the potentially steep learning curve and traditionally high barrier of entry for new or otherwise less advanced users of the spreadsheet application. Intermediate or otherwise more advanced users of the spreadsheet application will also benefit from the quick analysis tool because of improved efficiency for applying data analysis features to data within a spreadsheet document.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 5, 2011Publication date: June 6, 2013Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Chad Barry Rothschiller, Thomas Scott Constantine, Andrew James Becker, Dafna Chen, Gabhan Berry, Xiaohui Pan, Igor Borisov Peev

Patent number: 7225189Abstract: Methods and systems provide for bi-directional communication between a spreadsheet application worksheet and a database data source that allows modified data to be written from a spreadsheet application to source data in a database data source from which the original pre-modified data was obtained. Offline data changes in a spreadsheet application are cached by a data provider application and are published to a remote data source when the spreadsheet application is synchronized with the data source. Error conditions and data conflicts resulting from new or modified data published to a database data source from a spreadsheet application worksheet are reported to a user of the spreadsheet application worksheet through a data provider application to allow the user an opportunity to resolve error conditions and data conflicts between the user's data changes and other data changes made to the same source data contained in the database data source.Type: GrantFiled: February 19, 2004Date of Patent: May 29, 2007Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Michael J. McCormack, Robert W. Coffen, Richard L. Dickinson, Sumit Chauhan, Su-Piao Bill Wu, Eric W. Patterson, Paul A. Hafner, Larry Tseng, Xiaohui Pan, Michael J. Eatough
