And one (maybe better) guess.

When you look at the titlebar, do you see [Read-Only] after the workbook name?

If you do, then you have to open the file not in readonly mode.

That could mean to wait for another user to close the file

or it could mean that you could use windows explorer to change that readonly
property

or it could mean that you don't have write ability to the drive that holds that
file (you'll have to save it somewhere else first--or get the permissions
changed).

I was able to use "Share Workbook" in a new file, but why would that function
not be available in the existing file? Is it because I didn't create it
originally? If I save it in a particular way, could I enable Share Workbook?

Thanks!

Is that option always greyed out? Or is just greyed out for this workbook?

Start a new workbook and test it out.

If it's always greyed out, you can try resetting that toolbar:

Tools|Customize|toolbars tab
select worksheet menu bar
click Reset

Did that work?
