Conflict History Information Lost in Exclusive Workbook (130559)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Excel for Windows 95
This article was previously published under Q130559 SYMPTOMS
In Microsoft Excel, when you stop sharing a workbook by clearing the Allow
Multi-User Editing check box in the Shared Lists dialog box, the Conflict
History worksheet is removed from the workbook. Additionally, if you later
share the workbook again and add the Conflict History worksheet again, the
information previously displayed on the Conflict History worksheet no
longer appears.
CAUSE
This behavior is by design. When you stop sharing a workbook, a dialog
box with the following warning appears:
Warning! This action will prevent other users from saving their work
to this file! They will have to save to a different file, even if you
later make this file shared again. Proceed?
If you choose Yes, the file is no longer shared, and the Conflict History
worksheet (if it was displayed in the workbook) is removed. Additionally,
the conflict information that was displayed on this worksheet is not
saved.
If you later reshare the workbook, the conflict history from the
first time you shared the workbook is no longer available. The conflict
history information for each workbook is only stored while the file is
shared.
