MENLO PARK, Calif., March 3 / -- eXpresso(TM) Corporation, a pioneering provider of online community solutions for businesses, today announced the debut of eXpresso Pro, the full-featured, general availability version of the popular Web-based product.

eXpresso, released in beta last summer, uniquely allows users of Microsoft ExcelŽ, the world's most-used spreadsheet application, to upload, distribute and collaborate in real-time on Excel files via the Internet. eXpresso users can not only access their Excel spreadsheets from any PC with an Internet Explorer Web browser, but also authorize others to view or edit the same spreadsheets as needed.

files online (eXpresso Basic users are limited to five online
spreadsheets);

compliance purposes;

prior iterations;

"download," and change rights at any time;

a user takes a particular action on the owners' spreadsheet.
