Welcome to shared workbooks. Conflicts, crashes, or other miscellaneous
catastrophes are just part of the territory in my experience. To the best of
my knowledge there is no way around the problems... I personally never use
them any more.

Can you tell me the difference between a regular Excel workbook and a binary
workbook?

We use a shared workbook as a tracking system for our department, and we
often have conflicts, crashes, or other miscellaneous catastrophes. My
manager asked me to find out whether saving it as a binary workbook might
reduce the number of problems that we experience.

Thank you for your help.
