Excel Collaboration

Hello. 

 

This maybe a newbie question but I need to find an answer from experts. One of my users is looking for option to share one Excel document among few people but wit only part of rows available for each other. So i.e. user X should be abele to access and edit rows 10-20, user Y  - 21-30 an so on. The owner/author should have r/w access to whole document. Is it feasible at all?

Cheers

Piotr

    Apply different passwords or permissions to separate ranges in workbooks in Excel

    Please click on the link for detailed information.

     

    A small example - step explanation.

    Review tab

    Changes

    Users are allowed to edit areas

    New area

    This area relates to the cells: -> entire table, i.e. click on the character to the left of column A and above row 1. Password: Enter twice

    Permissions

    2 people who are allowed to edit the area (selected with the "Check names" help).

    "Allow" permissions

    Activate sheet protection including password

    Take.

     

    I hope you could understand.

     

    I would be happy to know if I could help.
