Hi Al. The company I work for has a guest list. It can be accesed from
several workstations. The problem is that we are using excel not nad only one
user can be updating at a time. is there a way that multiple users can be
entering info at the same time and after it is entered all the other open
screens will either refresh with teh new data of be prompted to do so???
Thanks

You could create an Access application that allows multiple users to access
the data at one time, although actually updating a linked Excel file requires
coding. I'd move the data into an Access table located in a database on your
network.

Then create an Access application that links to that data.
