Default How can i get alert on my pc when shared excel sheet is modified?

Hi,

About receiving notification of changes to a file or discussion

Important: Some of the content in this topic may not be applicable to some
languages.

The Subscription feature enables you to be notified by e-mail of any changes
made to a Web site. You can cancel a subscription at any time.

You can subscribe to an individual page or to all the pages (files) stored
in a folder on a Web server (Web server: A computer that hosts Web pages and
responds to requests from browsers. Also known as an HTTP server, a Web
server stores files whose URLs begin with http://.).

When you subscribe to a page or a folder, your discussion server (discussion
server: A computer that stores discussion text and information about the
location of the file being discussed.) notifies you on a scheduled basis if a
file or folder is modified, deleted, or moved, or even if a new file is
created in that folder.

You can also be notified if a discussion comment (discussion comment: A
remark or topic of discussion that is associated with a Web page or Microsoft
Office file and is stored on a discussion server.) is deleted from a file, or
if a new discussion comment is added.

Now suppose one user changes the data or updates the data, I want to receive
an alert or notification. How is it possible?
