FILE SHARING

Hi All

When I opened a work book, it asked if I wanted to" read only"
because it was in use.

Is there a way that I can tell who's using it when I'm in the read
only mode?


Thanks for your help

Depends on the version of windows in use.
Windows 2000 professional shows a "File in Use" window that will sa
the file is "locked for editing by 'USER ID.'"
unfortunately, if the user doesn't put a user id into Excel, you ar
out of luck
