August 2007 Release (rev 9580)

The most notable new features in this release are:

• Share-to-Email - Having enjoyed sharing your spreadsheet with other users seamlessly in EditGrid? From now on, you can also share your spreadsheet to those who does NOT have an EditGrid account in just a few clicks! Let’s invite your friends to edit together by going to “Share > Share with others > Add Emails” now!
• Spreadsheet Redirection - You can share your spreadsheet with others in EditGrid without the hassle of e-mailing the document again-and-again, but do you need to notify your friends of the spreadsheet’s link being changed when you rename your spreadsheet? Inspired by MediaWiki, we’ve avoided the hassle by supporting spreadsheet redirection after renaming/changing of ownership! Simply select “Create a new redirection” when you rename the spreadsheet/change the ownership, the old permalink will be redirected to the new permalink!
• Find-and-replace - We never forget to make EditGrid closer to your Excel experience. You can now replace the phrase in your spreadsheet in EditGrid as you usually do in Excel. Go to “Edit > Replace” or simply click the short-cut “Ctrl+h” to open the find-and-replace dialog and start replacing!
