trying to save someone else's updated spreadsheet

[Ninip]

Hi everyone
I need help please ASAP I have a deadline.
I have sent via e-mail a spreadsheet to someone for them to add their info.
It is basically a to do list. When they open the spreadsheet and type in
their stuff and then click save all is fine. Info shows.
But when they send it to me whatever they have added is not there anymore.
What are we doing wrong.
Please can anyone help us.
Thanks in advance.

I would guess perhaps they are sending you back a version of the sheet they
have not edited? Have them save the sheet as a different name somewhere on
their computer and have them email that sheet to you to ensure you are
getting the sheet they have edited and saved.

Are you opening the file they email back by clicking on the attachment, (the
right way), or by some other method?

Yes, opening by clicking on attachment.

Then apparently, like Tim said, they must be inadvertantly sending you the
wrong (not updated) file.
