We are sharing a worksheet via Excel. This is located
on a 2003 server... the clients are running Office XP
2003 or 2002. Some are accessing it via Terminal
Server.

The problem is... it keeps getting screws up... Someone
will open it and it will be completely BLANK.. then I
will try to open it.. and it will also be blank.

Sometimes it will be fine when I open it up. but when I
log in under the persons name who is having the issue..
it shows the blank screen.

I have 4 rows that are frozen on the top. With the
availability to move the reaming rows up and down. Once
it goes blank.. it freezes 30 rows....


The only way I'm able to get it back... is to have
everyone get out of it, then on a system that its still
fine... I unshared it... save it. then under the user
that is having a issue I open the unshared file... then
share it again.

any idea as 2 why this is happing???
 
Hi Ryan
I've encountered the same problems here - no solution though:
- seems to depend on the number of concurrent users (the more the more
often this happens)
- For us it works quite robust within a Citrix Metframe environment
using Windows XP

IMHO this feature is quite new and Excel is not designed for sharing
workbooks from the beginning. I'd use a database for this kind of tasks
