    Cool How to Share Workbooks between Multiple Users?!?

    I feel like I'm so close, but I'm missing something important

    Here's what I've done:
    1. Clicked the 'Share Workbook' button on the Review tab
    2. Checked the box that says 'Allow changes changes by more than one user at the same time'
    3. Selected the settings I want

    ...now what...

    If I put the file on a jump drive and put it on multiple computers that use the same internet will they all be linked?
    This seems to easy, and I would test it right now, but I don't have a jump drive.

    Thanks in advance!!

    No, you need to put it on a shared drive, therefore there will only one file (not three). You can find lots of information online about sharing folders, etc. but in the end, all the computers that will share this file have to be able to simultaneously see the same folder.

    Hope this helps.

    I thought about the same thing and I can test it tonight because I have never tried that before.
