Hi,
I have uploaded an excel to a Teams chat and I suppose this excel can be co-edit from the teams members at the same time.
However, when I open it thru "Open in Excel", I got below popup. What is it? How to avoid it and resolve it?
Thank you in advance.
Best Regards,
A beginner of Teams

SolutionHi @iasknlearn,
Is the Excel file in xslx format? That is required for enabling co-authoring.
Which Office version you have?
Is Office installed from Microsoft 365 subscription?

Hi @Matti Paukkonen,
The excel is in .xlsx format. Is it ok?
I am using excel 2016. I suppose the teams member are using company pc and so it should be an official version.
Just wonder, is it possible if Member A "open in Excel" while at the same time Member B "open in Excel online" at the same time?
Do I need to suggest all member open the file in the same way?
