locked for editing even though I'm not in it
HELP!!!
I was in a file that's read only. My network connection crashed and now nobody can get into my excel file because it says I have it locked. I see no temp file in the network folder that contains the file. People are ready to kill me. What can I try? |
One possible cause is a hidden instance of Excel. Use Alt Ctrl Del to open
the task manager and make sure you don't have two versions of Excel running. Or try copying the file with a different name. Or try resetting the attributes on the file by right clicking and having a look at properties. Or try rebooting your machine. Or reboot the server.
