Create a list in a shared workbook
Excel 2003 Help tells me that I cannot create a list in a shared workbook -
most frustrating. Does anyone know of a workaround (or indeed why this should be), please? I have shared the workbook to avoid the annoying message that crops up each time I try and save the document to the server (The file may have been changed by another user, etc etc) so I could always work on it on my C:\ drive or turn off file sharing, but it seems a bit of a fudge. Thanks. |

Create a list in a shared workbook
Using help for "shared workbooks" you will find a list of features not available
in shared worksbooks and the alternatives for these features. Unfortunately "Create Lists" has no alternative.
