Hi,
I just wanna know if it's possible to share a workbook for one user and at the same time making it read-only for other user(s). Thanx |

What would be the purpose of sharing if only one user can write to the
workbook? The purpose of shared workbooks is to allow multiple users to open and edit simultaneously.

Hi peyman,
Check this page - Part 4 (Share data with other people): http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/tr...189871033.aspx It is A roadmap to Excel 2007 training provided by Microsoft Office, but it might help you. If you still do not have Office 2007, I recommend that you try it, because there are many things Microsoft Office has improved, you may refer to this page to understand what has been changed and how to use it. -- MFS22 "peyman" wrote: Hi, I just wanna know if it's possible to share a workbook for one user and at the same time making it read-only for other user(s).

Hi Gord,
It doesn't seem to be weird if you make a file shared to some users and at the same time Read-only for other users. For example , for a shipping plan excel file, I need it shared for Plannig Manager and Production Manager so that they can update it but at the same time I need my Shipping department only see the shipping plan with no access to change any data on the file. I hope it's clear for you. Peyman "Gord Dibben" wrote: What would be the purpose of sharing if only one user can write to the workbook?
