We have several Excel spreadsheets that are shared between six workstations. This week alone, we have been kicked out of one specific spreadsheet 5 or 6 times and have to "save as..." and rename the workbook. The error message that we are receiving indicates that we have committed a "sharing violation". Has anyone else experienced this and, if so, is there a solution? Out IT guy says that we shouldn't share. If so...why does Excel have a sharing option? -- Tom |

This isn't a 64-bit question, it's really an Excel issue. I'd suggest you ask over on one of the Office or Excel newsgroups. FWIW, there are multiple causes for sharing violations, but the fact remains that Excel is not a multiuser application. -- Charlie. http://msmvps.com/blogs/xperts64 http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/profile/charlie.russel "Tom" <tom1015ota@pcsia.net.(donotspam)> wrote in message news:A19C1827-4295-4065-B83B-A6C622BD9A31@microsoft.com... > We have several Excel spreadsheets that are shared between six > workstations. > This week alone, we have been kicked out of one specific spreadsheet 5 or > 6 > times and have to "save as..." and rename the workbook.
