Sharing workbooks
Hi,
I've read that it is not a good idea to share workbooks. Could anyone tell me if this is true and why please? Is there any other alternative to opening the workbook one at a time. Using Excel 2003 & Novell server Many thanks -- Smudge |
Sharing workbooks
Do you mean the Tools|Share Workbook feature?
If yes, look at excel's help for "Features that are unavailable in shared workbooks" for a big list. That's enough to stop me from sharing workbooks. But others have reported other problems, too. Many suggest that if you really want to have simultaneous access, then a real database program (Access?) would be better. Smudge wrote: Hi, I've read that it is not a good idea to share workbooks.
