Hi @Bob100 It is not something I use myself (I use OneDrive) but doesn't the BT Cloud App provide that facility?

BT Cloud – Apps on Google Play

I’m not too sure if you can link your cloud account directly.

However, you could try downloading the BT Cloud app and downloading the spreadsheet when you want to use it.

I don’t use Samsung Tabs so I’m unfamiliar with how it works, but on my computer, BT Cloud when downloaded is shown as a network drive and updates any changes I make live, if the operations of the Tablet is anything similar you could see if the BT cloud app has created a folder on your Tab with the files you have uploaded that you can directly open to avoid downloading and re-uploading.

Thank you. Yes I can do that for all file types but when you open bt cloud on the tablet it just lists every file in the cloud and every type and you have to scroll and scroll and scroll to find the file you need, there is no file name search facility.
