Sharing+Workbook

__SHARING AN EXCEL WORKBOOK __

Let's say you're working on a group assignment and some of the group want to work on it at the same time. Having multiple copies of the assignment and working on it individually doesn't make sense. Instead with excel workbook sharing multiple people are allowed to work on the sheet at the same time.

//To do this you://

1. Open an Excel document and click on the **Review tab**.

2. Click on the button that says **Share Workbook**.

A box will appear that looks like this:



This box tells you who has the workbook open and it gives you __**TWO**__ options. 1) You can check the box on the editing tab to allow changes by more then one user at the same time and also allow merging. OR 2) You can cancel the box and leave it alone.

3. If you choose option one then you can click on the **Advanced** tab and pick which settings you want for the workbook.

**These settings will allow you to track the changes, when the workbook will be updated, what to do when changes are conflicting, and if you want to include a personal view.



//This will make yours and your groups lives so much easier when working on a shared excel assignment!!//
