Linking two Excel Files
 
Is there a way to have one excel on your C drive and another on the server. If you update the one on your c drive and it will automatically update the one on the server with only the specific columns you want entered. Also if you do not have a exchange server.

You would have to write code to record changes, then open the server version
of the file in you local instance of excel and update it, then close and
save it. Now if the file was set up like a database, there are possibly
other approaches you could use such as using ADO or DAO. This assumes that
you have read and write access to the file from your computer.
