Hi all,

I'm trying to find out if it is possible to have installed Excel on a
certain computer (called X), and open .xls files on another computer where
Excel hasnt been installed. Computer X is connected to this other PC through
a network, so that it uses the Excel program from computer X.
I don't know if this is possible, and I would like to know if it is, how to
set up Excel like this.

If it is possible, what happens if I do the following things (using, for
example, 3 pc's without excel, connecting to pc X with excel installed):

1. I run a programs on each PC (without excel) and adjust some settings from
excel, does this interfere with eachother?
2. If I open the same file 3 times (on each PC, open the same file as in
others), can I still write/read data without errors?

Hope I made myself clear, please help me if you can

Thanks in advance

Max
