SharePoint on line but using desktop software
Hi, Hope someone can help me please? We are mostly using Office 2013 on our pc's and I have just currently created a share point on line for all our company data, Here is the problem, All I want i...
You need to have your users check out the file (so that they will be the only user making edits). When the file is checked out the other users cannot access it. When the user is finished editing, save the changes and check the file back in. This way, 1 file is shared by all and they are all accessing the same data and changes. When the file is checked back in, the next person can then proceed to checkout and make there changes.
Hope this helps.
Thanks, Cathy Dye

I didn't make it clear, I'm sorry.
