• EditGrid Sync. Another graduate of EditGrid Labs, this desktop application for MS Windows 2000/XP allows users to synchronise spreadsheets on EditGrid with the counterparts on desktop.
• XML export. A simple presentation of the spreadsheet data in XML format as obtained by appending .xml to a spreadsheet’s permalink. Advanced uses include:
  • specify a remote XML stylesheet right at the URL to produce the desired XSLT, in this manner:

    http://www.editgrid.com/user/a_user/a_spreadsheet.xml
    ?xsl=http://my.ho.st/my.xsl

  • specify content type of the exported xml, in this manner:

    http://www.editgrid.com/user/a_user/a_spreadsheet.xml
    ?content-type=application/vnd.google-earth.kml+xml
    (NB: the same method also works for cell-level permalink, in this manner:

    http://www.editgrid.com/user/a_user/a_spreadsheet/Sheet1!A1
    ?content-type=application/vnd.google-earth.kml+xml)
