    Shared workbook crashing issue

    Hi all,

    I use a shared workbook which is used by almost 30 users from multiple computers. After some time while saving this workbook this use to crash or show " File is locked" though no one would be saving at that time.

    Is there a possible way to fix this??

    Thanks & Regards
    Nikhil

    Re: Shared workbook crashing issue

    The only thing I can think of, off the top off my head, is that, while no one may be saving, the file may be open on another computer, which, to me, suggests you are either not the originator of the file, OR, version control is not implemented, or not implemented properly..BUT, I am a relative newby in shared files, so I MAY have missed something
    A picture may be worth a thousand words, BUT, a sample Workbook is worth a thousand screenshots!
    -Add a File - click advanced (next to quick post), scroll to manage attachments, click, select add files, click select files, select file, click upload, when file shows up at bottom left, click done (bottom right), click submit
