Editing from Multiple computers?
 
Is there any way to edit the same workbook from multiple computers at the
same time? We are starting to double team some reports and keep running into

one workbook open and have multiple people be able to add data to it and have
it so up on both computers. Sort of like a live feed/update for both
computers.
