Excel fails to lock file across VPN?
My boss was editing a workbook via her VPN connection. Another user (not
using the VPN) was able to open the worksheet, edit it, and save it. I'll let you imagine who's being blamed. I think that I've seen this before, has anyone else? Does anyone know why it happens? Can anyone recommend a way to prevent this? The workbook is on a shared drive on a Windows server. My boss and the other user are using Windows XP with Office XP or 2003. The workbook is *not* set up to be shared. Thanks. |
