Which Excel, Visio and other Office products can "Publish" to SharePoint

 

A frequent question I get is "I can't publish to SharePoint". Not all editions of Excel and Visio have the publish feature!

Excel and Excel Services

Any edition of Excel can save files to a SharePoint library. Only the following editions of Excel 2010 can publish to Excel Services:

  • Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010
  • Microsoft Office Professional Academic 2010
  • Microsoft Excel Stand-Alone 2010

Visio and Visio Services

Any edition of Visio can save files to a SharePoint library. The edition needed to use Visio with other SharePoint features varies:

  • SharePoint Workflow import and export through SharePoint Designer 2010: Premium
  • Visual mash-ups with Visio Services: Professional and Premium
  • Publishing of diagrams to SharePoint Process repository: Standard, Professional and Premium
  • Publishing Visio Web (.vdw) drawings to SharePoint: Professional and Premium
  • Automatic Data Linking to data sources in SharePoint: Professional and Premium
  • Real-Time sharing of dynamic, data-driven diagrams via a browser using Visio Services: Professional and Premium

Visio Services: there are no addresses available for this application

 

While doing a demo for Visio Services in SharePoint 2010 I got the following “perfectly clear and obvious” error message.

The fix was quite simple… go start the Visio service in Central Administration! 

 

This error occurs for other services, such as the Document ID services and BCS, and the solution is generally the same: start the service and/or make sure the configuration is correct.
