Register for Online Services on Office Online

Microsoft Office Online is the Web site where the user can get free online services for Microsoft Office. To make sure that these services are available, connect to the Internet and complete a brief registration and sign-in process. Registration grants the user authorization to use the free services hosted on Office Online that require authentication. One can use the product updates, templates, clip art, and Help on Office Online without registering. However, for example, if one wants to publish the Microsoft Office Outlook calendar using the Microsoft Office Outlook calendar publishing service, one must register.
