shared and read-only
I have several excel ss on a server that are shared. When I open them from a
new computer with a pre-installed version of Office 2003, they will only open as (read-only) (shared). The previous machine did not have this problem. Another machine on the same network has no problem opening the file as shared without the read-only restriction. I would appreciate any help possible on this annoyance. |

Just a wild guess...
Are you sure that the user for the new pc has write access to that share? Excel will notice those permissions and respect them. Susan wrote: I have several excel ss on a server that are shared.
