If two people need to input data in to one spread sheet at the same time, is there a way to do this? At work it locks us out if there is someone else using the spreadsheet so we have to wait until they are finished?

RE: Sharing workbooks

Hi Celia,

Thank you for your question.

If you have sufficent rights, you can set the spreadsheet as a shared workbook which means multiple people can edit the spreadsheet at the same time.

To set the workbook as shared, follow these instructions:

1. Tools - Share Workbook.
2. Select the Allow changes by more than one user... checkbox.

I hope this answers your question.

Regards

Simon
