In Office 15, you can connect your account to various services like the social networking sites, other E-mail accounts and even the cloud services like Skydrive. From the Skydrive menu, you can choose various folders to retrieve documents from and save the documents to. But unfortunately, because Microsoft Office 15 is the desktop app, it may be unfortunate that you have to end up using the Skydrive desktop app or something when trying to retrieve documents like that for example. You may have a better bet in using the Skydrive Metro app to retrieve the documents on the document as the interactivity is easier that way.
There are now few ways to obtain the new Skydrive desktop app for windows. First, is the standalone way. Second, it you have Office 15 Home Premium Preview installed, Skydrive is already on your computer. Third, there's even the new Windows Essentials Wave 5 that has Skydrive app that replaces Windows Live Mesh entirely. Downside though, the programs still look like the Wave 4 version of Windows Live Essentials and in fact, there's no major progress whatsoever like that. The glassy ribbon interface is still there and there are STILL NOT enough features for Windows Live Movie Maker or some sort compared to other third-party video editors. That is the most disappointing part of Windows Live Essentials of like all time.
In addition to saving your documents to the cloud on Skydrive, there are other Web Locations, other online storages on other Microsoft accounts and other computers on your network. Besides saving your documents on your network, there are other places for you to save your documents to. Due to having the Save As Sub-Menu like that in Office 15, you have to be careful on where do you want to save your documents to so it's a little bit challenging while the data synchronization with the use of Skydrive is already easy enough on the computer. However, since you're in the desktop mode, it may be unfortunate to interact like that on the dialog boxes on the tablet and it should be WHY the hell is Office 15 the desktop app. One of the reasons is that Office 15 can be fully-featured app which may be finer on the normal computers, not the tablets.
When you have the Office documents stored on your Skydrive, you can use any device to access your Skydrive documents where-ever you go, provided that you have internet access. You can also use the Office Web Apps that are also upgraded to the online version of Office 15. Other changes include the Microsoft Website and the Microsoft Account Login pages which are apparently metro-ized. When your Skydrive data is automatically synchronized between your cloud storage and your device, it is automatically up-to-date just like using its rival cloud services.
There's also the Office Upload Center that connects with the Skydrive but even then, I don't happen to be using it to transfer the documents.
