Greetings Guys,

i have a shared excel file where nearly 20 people will be upating data on
regular basis, most often this file is getting locked like the file is lokced
by this user and even after the particular user close the file also it
remains as locked forever. Is there any way to avoid these kind of locking
issues.

thanks
raiju

raijuThat sounds like it isn't shared properly, normally when shared the only

warning you would get is if two people are making changes to the same
cell/range. It seems that although you have open access to your workbook
it isn't actually shared.
