Default Multi-user access to Excel

Menus Tools and Data is where the real Excel goodies are hidden ;-)
Thanks for the feedback.

Best wishes Harald

Harald,
Thanks for the info! I never thought to look on the Tools menu.
Regards, Bob

Hi Bob

It's in the Tools menu; Share Workbook. It is not like a "live

environment"
where you see your collegues' actions in real time, the merging is done

on
save and close as far as I know.

Hopefully someone can answer for Sharepoint. Our IT department won't buy

it
or let anyone (except perhaps themselves) play with it.

HTH. Best wishes Harald

As far as I know, when using Excel in a network environment, only one

person
can edit a single spreadsheet at a time (while others can

simultaneously
read
it). Yesterday, someone on a conference call said that there WAS a

way to
have multiple users edit a single spreadsheet at a time, but they did

not
provide any details as to how to do it. Does anyone know if that's

true?
Does SharePoint provide that capability?

Any help in resolving this debate once and for all would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks,
Bob
