In the demo below Peter Kalmström, CEO and Systems Designer
of kalmstrom.com Business Solutions, describes three ways

Peter is using Office 365 SharePoint for the demo, but the

Methods to upload a single file to a SharePoint library

2013 or later, it also works with earlier versions of
Internet Explorer. Refer to
Microsoft's guidelines.)
Save an Office file directly from your PC
