How to linking Microsoft excel files over a network

How do i link two or more computers to share one excel file. People should be able to enter data on the excel file file and also view any updates

If you have a Sharepoint then that would be possible.
If don't have only one active user can edit, others can access but read only.

How to share EFS encrypted files over a network (\\workstation\c$\encrypted-file.txt)

Hello,
we decided to theft-protect our workstations by using EFS encryption on some important documents and directories.
Just to be sure: I hope that data will not be readable in the case that someone physically gains access to the disk or computer with encrypted data and does not know user's name & password to log in or does not have the right encryption certificate with
private key. Please correct me, if I'm wrong.
All workstations are Windows 7 Professional joined to the domain controlled by Windows 2008R2 DC. We are a bit lazy, so we have generated a local, self-signed EFS certificate on a single workstation and installed this (the same) certificate on all workstations.
Now, we are able to share EFS encrypted files for example via a NTFS formatted flash drive.
Later, we have setup a Certificate authority (we can potentially issue new EFS personal, domain-based certificates that are published in AD), and established DRA as well (published DRA via a Group Policy).
All logged-in users have the same (non-domain) certificate installed in their "My User Account" certificate store, cipher /y command shows the same thumbprint value.
However, we would like to be able access files remotely, in a "lazy" way using an administrative share like
\\workstation\c$\users\bob\document.txt. We all are Domain Admins, so NTFS and SMB privileges should be OK, unencrypted files are accessible OK.
I have tried to issue a new certificates via the Cert Authority, putting them into "Trusted People" container etc., adding them to the "Users who can access this file:" list on the encrypted file and nothing worked.
So is it possible to share EFS encrypted files over a workstation's share (i.e.
\\workstation\something)?
What should I do to get it working? :-)
Thank you for any ideas.
Jan

OK, I understand that. However, I have read this article
Using Encryption File System (Technet)
and there is stated "Remote EFS operations on files stored on network file shares are possible in Windows 2000 or later domain environments only. Domain users can remotely encrypt or decrypt files,
but this capability is not enabled by default"
There are notes about computer trust etc., so I am seeking for someone who would help me a little bit with this.
Just imagine the simplest possible "single-user" case: there are two Win7 computers A, B joined into the domain and just single user BOB. Bob uses those two computers and need to access own documents like
\\A\DocumentsA or
\\B\DocumentsB. Standard setup - folder sharing: everything is working fine, share and NTFS permissions are set up, BOB can work with his own "remote" documents from both computers (\\A\DocumentsA from computer B and
vice versa).
BOB decides to encrypt his documents. So BOB logs in computer A, starts "Manage file encryption certificates Wizard", gets an EFS Certificate from CA and encrypts his c:\Documents (shared as
\\A\DocumentsA). I assume the EFS certificate is stored on computer A in BOB's local profile, therefore I ask:
Now, BOB moves to the computer B and logs on.
Q1: Will be \\A\DocumentsA accessible for BOB from B?
Q2: If not, what should do now? Should I do something in AD for computer accounts (A and/or B) ?
Thank you.

How can I watch AVI files over a network?

It was not without hesitation on my part that I started a new thread—I was convinced there was a large body of information available on this subject. That I was correct in this (for there seem a plethora of articles and links) was unfortunately no help to me.
After suffering the humiliation of my PC-championing roommate show me how to connect to another computer so I could access some AVI files, I ran into the problem of not having my Quicktime player compatible with them. I attempted a number of downloads, including a DivX player, the VLC player, as well as adding XVIDD and on2vp3 components to my Quicktime library folder.
Currently, none of these have worked. Anyone have a clue about what I need to do?

Phillip, AVI Files are infact for Windows Video and for you to be able to acsess them and play them you will have to download a Windows Media Player and you will probably have to choose it when you want to view them. Quicktime is your default player on your Mac you will have to change that when you download the windows player, I would leave it as Quicktime and choose the windows when you want to view them.

Here is where you can download there player.

Cannot open Excel file over LAN

I am trying to open an Excel file that is saved on the desktop of my iMac, from my iBook, but keeping getting a message that the file cannot be found. This seems like a strange message because I connected to the iMac over our home network, mounted my iMac home folder on my iBook, and navigated to the file, then tried to open it. I can open other files, like Word files, no problem. Only having a problem opening the Excel files. File sharing and AppleTalk have been turned on on both computers. Anyone have any idea why I cannot open these Excel files over the network? Thanks.

It appears that may be our easy workaround. I was able to open the file and edit after dragging it over to the iBook, then was able to drag it back to the iMac and drop it in. When I did, the system asked me if I wanted to replace the old one with the new edited one. I did, and then checked it on the iMac side. All the changes were present. Seems like a needless extra step, but it works.

How to Open Two Excel Files in Multiple Monitors in Windows 7

How to open two excel files in two excel windows using multiple monitors in Windows 7.
Currently it opens multiple files on top of each other on the same one monitor.
I found this article in a blog it says
"The snap feature that you are looking for will not work unless you open two instances of Excel. This is because Excel Unlike Word is not a True SDI Application. Microsoft is aware of the Issue however there is no resolution to the problem but the workaround"

If you are working almost the entire day in front of your computer at your office with lots of Excel Sheets and Word, then probably you might be working with a
dual monitor or may be even more than that. Studies have shown that having an additional monitor increases the productivity by 20 to 30 percent (Source: NY Times)
But some applications like MS Office Excel, even though you open multiple files, they are all from the same instance of the application. So if you want to compare two
Excel
files, then you may not be able to have it in two
separate monitors as the files are loaded using the same instance of Excel. If you move one
Excel
file to the other window, the other Excel files are also moved to the other window.
So how to have two separate Excel files or other application side by side in dual monitors?
Option A:
In Excel 2003, go to Tools -> Options ->
General tab.
Make sure the option, ‘Ignore other applications’ is checked. Now all the Excel files will be opened as separate instance and you can move the Excel files individually across the monitors.
In Excel 2007, Click the Office button ->
Excel Options -> Advanced.
Under General, check ‘Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange’.
or
As this method forces each Excel file as a separate instance, the memory consumption will be more. If you don’t want too many memory consumption then you can open only two instances (see
Option B) and manage wisely to view in both the monitors.
Note: If you are having issues like Excel opens without displaying a workbook, then you may have to
uncheck this option. (See Microsoft Help for more details on this). You can use option B in this case. I have this option checked and I have not faced any issue yet.
Option B:
They key here is, the application has to be loaded as separate instances. Lets say you have opened an Excel file in
Monitor 1 and you want to open the next excel file in Monitor 2. You can usually open another instance of Excel by browsing through the
Start Menu -> Programs -> Microsoft Office ->
Excel. Make sure this newly opened Excel file is the last Excel file you had viewed and then double click on the Excel file that you wanted to open. This will force the Excel to
open
in the second instance of Excel. Now you can move these
two excel files separately across windows or monitors.
This may be little cumbersome way to open new instances of Excel every time. The easy solution would be to keep these links in the
quick links near the Start button. So, every time you want to open a new instance of the application, you can just use those quick links.
hope work thanks

How to store an Excel file in InfoPath for users to edit

Hello,
I need an example on how to store an Excel file within InfoPath 2010 so that every time a user opens the InfoPath form they can make changes and can save as part of the form. The next user opens the form and another Excel files (blank) where they make changes and
saves. Thanks

Streamlining this would require a bit of custom work I imagine. However if you don't mind giving the users some extra clicks, there are probably a few ways to get the job done.
You could upload the excel file to SharePoint, make sure it's read-only and link to it within the InfoPath form. Then the process would be that users open the InfoPath form, fill it out, download the excel doc to their desktops and fill it out, and then
attach it to the IP form.
Or you could set up a separate, sister library where the New Item defaults to your Excel template. Then from within the InfoPath form you could have a hyperlink that creates the new item, saving it to the library. The caveat here is finding a way to link
to the two items together with a unique identifier. The benefit though is being able to browse and interact with Excel docs independent of the forms they are attached to, if necessary.

How to back up excel file in shareplace.

Hi Friends,
How to back up excel file in shareplace. Please help me to sort this.

Arun

Hi Arun,
I noticed you also asked the question in our Office forum via the url below:
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/office_2010-customize/excel-file-back-up-in-share-place/7a6c14ba-219f-4aef-bddf-45f1158c9f9e
I wonder what does “shareplace” exactly mean in your post, since this is an SharePoint forum, so I assume you would like to know the method to back up Excel file in SharePoint sites.
If you would like to back up Excel file before close, you could Save it to local then save to SharePoint sites. If I misunderstand your concern, please let me know.
