Excell Multiple Users and passwords

Good day

I need the some help with a scenario I find myself in...

I have a excel schedule that is on our server's general folder - its there for anybody to view - but in the workbook I have certain cells/ranges I only want certain people to be able to change. On one sheet I for instance have column A that needs to be changed by somebody in operations but column F needs to be changed by somebody in accounts dept. I want to give operations and accounts person each there own password - this way I know only they could have made changes.

Also is there a way for excell to track changes and list them an a new sheet within the workbook.

As always your inputs are greatly appreciated.

Regards,

excel is not very good with user rights.
you can use vba function environ, but it means macros enabled.
better is a file for every user and one general file with links for an admin.
