Hi, this is my problem. I have an excel spread sheet that I am going to be
putting on the web. I need for multiple users to be able to access the spread
sheet and make changes simultaneously. In other they need to be able to have
it NOT open in read only mode to multiple people. Is this any @ all possible.
If not want alternatives do I have?

Google spreadsheets does what you want: http://docs.google.com/

Hi, your suggestion had me very hopeful that it would be the answer to my
problems; however there is on hitch. The maximum file size for Google is
500K. My spread sheet is a lot bigger than that. Do you know of any other
alternatives I could try? BTW I did not see any way I could pay Google to
host the spread sheet. Does this pay option for Google exist?
Thanks in advance

No, I don't know of other alternatives.

Sounds like you need a database not a spreadsheet.

Check out a program called WebDAV. It's what I've been using to share access
to my files with clients.

It's basically just a web folder, you'll have to setup the spreadsheet for
shared access using the built-in Excel tools.
