Date and Time Format
About 3 years ago someone posted a question about date and time formats being set to the US format. Whatever display format is set, one must enter up the dates in this format, eg. 30th April must be entered in the cells as "4/30" and not "30/4". This was declared to be on the road map for change, and this was three years ago now. Are the Zoho development team aware that the good old USA is actually the only country in the world that uses this back-to-front date entry format? It's a total deal-breaker
Best practice for configuring Zoho DOCS
As a user (& partner) of many Zoho products (Mail, CRM, DOCS, Projects, Campaigns, Invoice, People) I constantly struggle with how to advise new users to approach the design of Zoho DOCS to best support their use of the other products. Has anyone tried creating a "Best Practice" Type document that they would care to share ? Specifically if you start with organisational groups and shared workspaces so for example you could create a workspace for Finance, add Finance Group as say moderators, you could
Create a Client for Windows/Mac that Syncrhonizes files like DropBox
This is a key missing piece from making Zoho Docs a killer app. So What is Missing? A small client program that allows you to select folders/files for synchronization with the server (Zoho Docs). For those of you that do not know, DropBox and several other services (although none as well as dropbox) have a small client that runs, synchronizing your files in the background. Benefits: Makes working with a remote repository as efficient as working with your local file system or Sharepoint; Saves tremendous

Inserting a View URL link
I've already done this before in the past, but the functionality seems to have been lost. I want to use Show to run a slideshow on a large screen in our call centre to show performance updates from Creator. So I want to embed half a dozon different Views from Creator into a Show presentation, where the content is being dynamically updated from the application. So then we would be showing top performers, remaining availability, etc in real time. When I try to insert the Link and/or I-frame snippet

Doc pdf files downloading slow..... loading message goes round and round

How do I remove carriage returns from a document?
I have a document that I'm bringing into Zoho Docs. Each line has a carriage return that I want to remove. I know how to do this in many word processors -- searching and replacing -- but: 1. I don't see how I can view the carriage return characters in Zoho Docs. Is this not possible? 2. In the Find and Replace, I can't see a way to enter these characters, or to enable regular expressions. Any help here? Thanks.

Workspaces
So far I love the workspaces........ When I add files or folders to my workspace, it looks like these files are still in their original location. So if anyone in the workspace make a change to the file that is in the workspace, will it also be reflected on the original file? I would just hate to have to versions of one file on my docs or even worse, have to remember where I got the original file from in order to copy the latest version back to the original location Is there a way to just LINK

Changing user name
When I signed up for Zoho Docs, it defaulted to my username being the same as my email address but with "Periods (.)" in between where the @ symbol and the - dash in my email address. This user name is too long. It also provides a headache when wanting to email attachements to my account. I went everywhere to try to change this but have had no success. Can you tell me how to change this?

Items I cant do or cant figure out how to do
So I have almost 600 MB on Docs now and like it overall. There are a few things that I wish it can do or that I haven't figured out how to do: It is my understanding that the search function will search not only on the title of the document or the tag but it will also search the content of your document (OCR).

Users vs Storage
Currently I have the free plan but it looks like this is for me so I want to upgrade to the premium but I need some clarification on the user vs storage of the premium plan. Im looking at adding 2 users and taking advantage of the extra $3 a month for another 5GB. Now will I get a total of 15 GB ( 5GB for each user and the 5 extra GB I purchases ) or will I only get 10?

Adding documents you don't own to multiple shared workspaces
Here it the scenario. • As a company we have one shared workspace that is our central repository. • We have a dummy user that owns the shared workspace so that it is not tied to any one individual who may not be with the company for ever. • We migrated all of our google docs and uploaded them to the shared workspace in the hierarchy we want • A new project comes up that we create a shared workspace just for that project. Some of the existing documents along with new ones will be added to this workspace.

moving folders/files, creating new documents in workspaces, and document ownership/links
Hi again! I got pretty quick help on my last question, hoping to get some more answers on using Zoho docs. First, in the tutorial videos, it looks like you can drag and drop files/folders? into other folder structures.

We both are unable to move things in this way, when we try it, everything on the web page gets highlighted and nothing turns green when we hover over it. Second, it looks like new documents
