Best Way to Distribute and Upgrade a Spreadsheet
Hi,
I have a spreadsheet which I am looking to distribute to a few people. It basically tracks stock prices and works out portfolio value and tax implications. The spreadsheet has code and data, and I want to know the best way to arrange it so that I can upgrade the code later if need be, without overwriting the data. I suppose I need to split the two up, using an add-in? What is the best way to do this please. Thanks Rich |

Rich,
The best approach would be to put all the code in an Add-In. -- Cordially, Chip Pearson Microsoft MVP - Excel Pearson Software Consulting, LLC www.cpearson.com "Rich" wrote in message ...

Best Way to Distribute and Upgrade a Spreadsheet
Thanks Chip,
I have realised another part of the problem is the formulas that are throughout the workbook. There may be a need to upgrade those. BTW, all my complex array formulas are based on your site, just made the connection. Thanks!!!!!! "Chip Pearson" wrote in message ...

Yes, you are on the right track. An add-in is the way to go. For some
