Hi simonv74, thanks for posting here! 

 

It sounds like maybe you're seeing this option on Excel's end, especially since you mentioned that you're viewing it on the web but let's check, just to make sure. 

 

Could you send me a screenshot of the steps you take, and the option you see on your end, just so I can also have visual? 

 

Keep me posted!

The function works on office.com

 

It does not work on dropbox.com

 

When I click this button, nothing happens

    Hey simonv74, since you're using Excel online, it would have something to do on their end. 

     

    I think the best approach here, is to contact Microsoft and ask them more info, since they'd be able to give you all the appropriate troubleshooting steps.

     

    Thanks!
