Google has a sweet surprise for Gmail users. Up until now, Gmail users could edit various document files by opening them via Google Drive. Now, the company has started rolling out Microsoft Office collaborative features that allow Gmail users to access and edit various documents in the mailing platform.

The company has announced that now Gmail users can open Office files for editing directly from a Gmail attachment. Simply said, when a user receives a Word document as an email attachment, they can open and edit in Docs with a single click while preserving the Word file format. In addition to this, users can also respond to the original email thread and include the updated file, right from Docs.
