Dropbox is a great service to save, share and store files and folders. Here’s a time-saver that lets you save Microsoft Office documents directly to your Dropbox.

Save Microsoft Office Documents to Dropbox

Here I’m saving an Excel document. In MS Office 2010 click the File tab then Save As. If you’re using Office 2007, click the Office button then Save As >> Word Document.

Windows Explorer opens. Select Dropbox under Favorites and the folder you want to save the document in.

Now when you’ll have access to your documents from your web browser or any system that has Dropbox installed.
