Default Update multiple files

You may want to store the data on Access and then have a query that gets
refreshes the workbooks. A query can be program to periodically update a
workbook.

Hi,

I have a file that is shared between many users simultaneously. Users can
only open a read only file. This file is not shared and I have disallowed the
saving/overwriting of this file.

Users will only be able to use the sheet "USERS" but meanwhile, I'll be
updating another sheet frequently. Is there anyway that the read-only files
used by users will be updated at almost the same instant after i update the
other sheet?

I do not want to share the workbook because there are alot of things that
can't be done if I share it.

Thanks,
Dolphin
