Emailed Excel file comes across as read-only

D

I have a case where I emailed an Excel file to a coworker. He received
the email, and saved the file on one of his network drives. When he
opens the file, it says the file is in use by me, and will be opened as
read-only.

How can this file be in use by me, when he saved it on a network drive
to which I have no access?

I looked at the file on my side, and confirmed that my version is not
read-only.

Any ideas?
