    Post maintain two excels at same time

    Hi,

    i am just narrating what i need....
    just think i am maintaining a leave planner for my staffs in my desktop
    but i want to maintain a excel parallely in common drive where all my staffs can have a look on it
    the excel saved in common drive should automatically update when i make changes in the excel in my desktop.
    how is that possible
    (i cant save original excel in common drive, sometimes staff may delete that, so i need to maintain it in desktop, that is the reason i need help on this)
    i am using 2007 version

    it maybe simple just when you save the desktop version - copy across to the share

    If where you work has a website, you might able to take advantage of "auto republish" of the workbook as described here

    thanking for efforts guys
    i got the solution
    i just copied the data from master workbook and pasted using paste special => paste link, in common drive work book

    there is a drawback in this, i.e. in the workbook which is in common drive, it always show zero for blank cells in master excel
    can't help it will be as it is
    whenever you open the excel in common drive it asks permission to update. if this is uncomfortable, please go to excel options => trust center => trust center settings => external content => click th check box "enable automatic update for all workbook links"
    then it will be automatically update whatever the changes happens in master workbook.
