Default Shared folder - tabs disappear while saving

Hi guys,

I've just put on the server a shared excel folder (15 tabs). Every person
should work on its tab and then, at the end, the work results are
summarised/analysed in the final tab.

That's how I did it.
1. Prepared the folder on my personal drive
2. Passprotected an important part of cells on every tab
3. While keeping the file on my personal drive, I've put "protect and share
workbook" (and, while protecting, I've put another password (=different from
the password I used to passprotect the sheets)). Then I moved the file on
the server, where every person can access it.

Shortly after, one employee told me that after having put his data on his
sheet he pressed "Save" button and at the same moment his sheet disappeared
totally. I've checked it with some other persons and it seems that this is a
general problem. Morover, when I asked excel to show me "Tracking changes
history", the worksheet on which I was at this moment disappeared also (and
history didn't show).

On the summary worksheet, the columns that should resume the data for the
sheets that "disappeared" show now #REF info.

Could you pls help me on this?
Do you have any idea why this happens and how to avoid it?
Thanks a lot!

Gizmo
