vLook up
Hi, Is there a limit to max # Collaborators in Excel Web vs. Excel Desktop App? We have 9 people using the same file simultaneously and doing different vlookup's on different tabs. Users say they can't all work on it simultaneously if they use either the Web or the Desktop. It sounds like the Excel file may be limited due to the large volume of data, but not sure? Thank you
To my knowledge there is no such limit. What exactly means "they can't all work on it simultaneously" - long time response, or they have some error notice or what?
- Diane713Copper ContributorYeah, I was wondering the same, and waiting for a reply. To my knowledge, the Desktop App is much more robust and I had not previously run across a simultaneous user limit. User Groups have all recently migrated from Google Docs / Sheets to Microsoft O365, so there are constant comparisons. Please share if you know of sources that can "translate Google Sheets to Microsoft Excel" features!
Sorry, nope, have no idea how to automatically translate Google Sheet to Excel. Taking into account we have not compatible formulae when if to save Google Sheet as Excel file it is substituted as constant. Perhaps some other details, don't know.
