   Microsoft Office 2016 15.27 and Office 2011 14.6.9

   Agen G. N. Schmitz

   Microsoft has issued version 15.27 of its [1]Office 2016 application
   suite with improvements to Excel, OneNote, and PowerPoint. The OneNote
   note-keeping app (also available as a free standalone app from the
   [2]Mac App Store) now corrects spelling mistakes by using suggestions
   from the spell checker, and enables you to find and fix accessibility
   issues in your notes by using the Accessibility Checker in the Tools
   menu. For Office 365 subscribers, PowerPoint enables you to trim
   unwanted content from the beginning or end of audio or video files, and
   you can use CONCAT or TEXTJOIN to shorten text formulas in Excel. On
   the [3]security front, both Office 2016 and Office 2011, which
   Microsoft has updated to [4]version 14.6.9, resolve memory corruption
   vulnerabilities. ($149.99 for one-time purchase, free update through
   Microsoft AutoUpdate, [5]release notes, 10.10+)
