I wish someone had answered you. I am also interested in the answer. I hate
to believe that Excel can not more elegantly be shared among 4 project
managers. Where they can have it open and update/save and merge at the end
of the day. Where one person reviews any conflicts found.
Share workbook teases that this is possible. Sharepoint teases that this is
possible but I have not gotten any demonstration of it and all I can do is
experiment to make it do what is slyly written in help files.

did you ever get your answer?

Our office uses a few shared workbooks, and for some reason, when you check
the 'share workbook' menu, users are still officially there, even though
according to the 'task manager' they don't have anything open.

We were told that it might be because of an older version of excel, but we
upgraded to Office 2007 and even the brand new 07 workbooks have the same
problem!

Any ideas/suggestions?
