We utilize opening up Excel files on box.com using the Open button on the upper right of a file, "Microsoft Excel Online". We have noticed that almost no files have the option available and we cannot figure out why. We have been using it daily for a year. Is these any reason why an excel file would not be available online while another is not? I have tried saving various types of Excel files (.xlsm,.xlsx) and none of them work when .xls doesn't work.

 

Any idea what is going on?

  As a follow-up, we have noticed it is Folder specific. Some folders in Box.com you open a file and it says the file is unavailable to be opened. Like this 

  

   

  If you take the same file and put it in another folder and open it in Box.com you do get the option to open with Microsoft Excel Online.

  

   

  We are puzzled. Help.

  Issue found. In the settings for folders the box under Privacy>Collaborators was checked. If you check this, Excel Online will not work for any files withing the folder. If Excel Online is not available for your files be sure to check this for each high level folder!
