File is in use by <valued customer... read only... etc...

Trying to open a shared Excel file. How do I change it so <valued customer
will read a specific persons computer or name?!?! I can't tell WHO is using
the file when all I see is <valued customer. Renee

File is in use by <valued customer... read only... etc...

In xl2003 menus:

Tools|Options|General Tab
Change the username box.

The bad news is that you'll have to tell all the users to do the same thing.

(Gateways???)
