We’ve released updates to the following update channel for Microsoft 365 Apps: Current Channel Version 2210 (Build 15726.20174) October 27.
Feature updates
Table of Contents
Excel
- Get data for your workbooks by importing an image: Turn images with text into content you can edit in Excel. With the Data from Picture feature, you can convert the information in an image to data on a worksheet. Learn more. See details in blog post.
- Dynamic Array Integration with Charts: This feature enables users to link charts to Dynamic array calculations, which can produce results of variable length. The chart will automatically update to capture all data when the array recalculates, rather than being fixed to a specific number of data points.
Resolved issues
Outlook
- We fixed an issue that caused emails to get stuck in the outbox for some profiles with multiple Exchange accounts configured.
PowerPoint
- We fixed an issue with updating links when the linked file is already open.
Project
- We fixed a second issue where Project was unable to connect to Project Server when forms-based authentication was used. In some cases, users who were able to connect, for example, the day before were unable to connect the next day. Deleting the server connection profile temporarily fixed the issue.
Word
- We fixed an issue in the Word dark mode theme where you are unable to see editable text in documents with restricted editing because the highlight color is too similar to the text color.
- We fixed an issue where pasting keep source formatting results into content controls would display characters such as a question mark (?) or a blank square.
- We fixed an issue where pasting keep source formatting results into content controls would display characters such as a question mark (?) or a blank square.

Office Suite
- We fixed an issue where Word Android closed unexpected with or without user input when opening a document.
- We fixed an issue with URL handling by Visual Basic macros.
