I have a workbook which is used by over 100 people. It is turned on to share mode, but to ensure it would stay like that I need the workbook to check whether it is shared while being opened and then turn to share mode in case this would not be the fact.
View 4 RepliesI have a large worksheet that for some reason I can’t share.
-It does not have any lists, that I know of, do not know how to see if there are any
-It does have validation, but I have other workbooks with listed validation that are shareable
-It is not protected
-Does not have any named ranges
-Is not read only
-I have saved it as another file name and no luck there
-I have copied the one sheet I really need into a separate file to try that it did not work,
I need to know that how can we share excel workbook. Is it possible over LAN? Also how many users can access the shared workbook. If 50 users are accessing shared workbook and each one working on different workbook. Is this scenario feasible? Will there be any issue if 50 users working on 50 different worksheets of same workbook?

I am looking for all Excel files in a folder (WORKING) and determining if they are shared, allowmultipleusers, (WORKING). The problem I am encountering is changing the Excel workbook to a [SHARED] workbook. By that I mean Multiple users can open and make changes. What is the syntax to enable that? As an FYI I can save the [SHARED] workbooks as exclusive (normal), but not the reverse. I have tried Saveas,,,,,,xlshared, but is not working. Here is the VBS code I have (For grins)

I have written a VBA code.
I thought I could just save it as an ADD-IN and then have my colleagues to add it, but that does not work. The macro will be stored in a seperate workbook and that is not what I want. I want them to be able to open any workbook and want them to be able to run the macro. I.e. everytime they open a workbook the macro should be available and be ready to run.
My company has a lot of file excel. I usually use Google driver, LAN and a lot of the other ways to share file to all member in the company. But so, it is time consuming very much and not protect information in my execl file.

I think the "[share]" means that more than one person can access it at the same time. How do you create a document like this.
How do I share a macro(s) to other users so they can use it? Each user has different location because we are working remotely.

There are 10 region folders
Each region folder contains 8 or fewer files.

I have an excel document that I wish to share for multiple users to edit, but get the following error message Excel tabs or XML maps.
View 3 Replies View RelatedMy coworkers and I use a couple of Excel documents to store statistics. The document is on a network share. We all have Office 2010, my coworkers are on Windows XP, I am on Windows 7.
If I open the document and make changes, then save it to the network location I can open the document later and see the changes but my coworkers do not see any changes I have made. Also If my coworkers make changes to the document the 3 of them see the changes but I do not.
If I go straight to the network share the timestamp on the document only changes for changes I made.For example if I go to servernamefoldernamestats.xls and add data to the file. Then save and close it. I can reopen the file and my changes are there.
Tomorrow Coworker 2 opens the same file from the same location but it has data from 2 days ago, with a timestamp of 2 days ago and my data is missing. They then reimput the data I entered, and add todays data. Then they save it and close.I open the file it has my data from yesterday, but not the new data entered by coworker 2.
I have created some macros that need to be used in several workbooks by more than one users, so I put them in an add-in and gave them instructions on how to get the add-in. I also created a toolbar with buttons calling those macros, attached it to a workbook the users can open, and instructed them to open that workbook once to get the toolbar.
Both the add-in and the toolbar workbook are on a network drive that my users can access, but when they get the add-in, it gets copied to their own add-in folder.
Here's my problem:
When a user tries to click on one of the buttons in the toolbar, the button tries to call the macro using the path that would be valid on my computer to get to my add-in folder. This path includes my user name, so it doesn't go to their own add-in folder: it goes to my add-in folder on that computer if I ever logged in on that particular machine, or it goes nowhere.
When I created the button, I attached the macros by referring to the add-in workbook by name only, without referring to a path, so I don't know why MY path ended up defined on that toolbar.
How can I go around this? I manually relinked all the buttons for that user, and I can do it for the other users (there aren't that many users nor that many buttons), but I'd rather avoid it: I'll have to re-do it if the toolbar is updated and it just seems like more work than should be necessary.
I'm also opened to suggestions on a better way to share those macros. They can't be attached to the workbooks because we use new workbooks every year - they're emailed to us by the people who create them and for a variety of reasons, pasting everything into a workbook of our own is not a good option.
I currently have a macro that can be used by multiple spreadsheets. Is there that I can execute the macro within any specific spreadsheet without saving it in each spreadsheet. I just want to place it in a general spot so that in case there is modifications, I only have to change it in one place.

I am looking for way to express developments ( absolute and relative) in market growth and market share over time.
I have 3 questions:
How can i show the growth of the total market sales over time (period 1 to 4)?
How can i show the growth of the Int comapny sales over time (period 1 to 4)?
How can i show the market share of the Int company over time (period 1 to 4)?
Market growth can be calculated by comparing the sales amounts of the total market (or the Int company) to previous periods. Market share can be calculated by expressing the sales figures of the Int company in percentage of the total sales in a partical period (i=1,2,3,4).
I created a macro in VBA that pops up a calendar with keyboard short cut and places the date in selected cell. It works great on my pc. I can't share the macro with anyone. I saved it as an add-in...installing the add-in did nothing. Then I saved it as a template...the template did not open with any macros associated. both cases, no errors. no message to enable to disable macro.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a speadsheet, and at the moment, another spreadsheet access it via a vb code. but i have 3 - 5 agents needing it sometimes at the same time. All that happens, is the agents excel sheet passes some info to the server sheet, so the vb codes opens and closes it. So only one person can do it at the same time.. but i need this so anyone of the agents can enter info via the vb code.
When i tested it, it asked me when i opened it, if i wanted to save what the last person did, I need that not to come up, so really its like the sheet is always open, but not... and lines are added. The info is added to the same sheet, and line by line.
I am wondering how I can highlight rows that contain the same text across selected columns (not all). For example, consider the following table:
ID#6527
Jay
yellow
dog
[Code]...
I want to focus on Columns B, C, and D. I would like rows 3 and 5 to be highlighted, since they share the same text across the target columns. I assume this can be done via a formula in Conditional Formatting, but I'm not sure.
Right now I have a script that will highlight any rows where columns "Unit1" and "Unit2" share the same value.
The script is below:
[Code] .....
How to modify this so that it only highlights rows where the same data is duplicated twice?
For example if both columns had "The dog runs" as their value in the same row, then this would only get highlighted if two or more rows on the sheet also had "The dog runs" for both their value.
Example: example.jpg

I created two pivots:
1 provides sales data for companies in a time period,
2 provides market share data for companies in a time period.
Both pivots can be filter by page fields country and category. Now i want to calculate 4 average market share values (because i have 4 defined periods): 1 average MS in period 1, 1 average MS in period 2, etc. In this average i want to exclude companies that are not active in a certain period (pivot table shows MS = "0%") and companies that totally not active in all periods (pivot table doesn't shows market share data at all after a certain selection of the page fields).
