Format in Excel 2003
Share workbook and track changes
With Excel built-in tools you can easily work together on workbooks and monitor who, when and what changes
made. E.g., track project status and tasks.
Allow specific users to edit ranges in a protected spreadsheet
Excel offers you an ability to assign user-level permissions to different areas on a protected spreadsheet.
You can specify which users can edit a particular range while the spreadsheet is protected. As an option,
you can require a password to make changes.
Protecting spreadsheet elements
Working with large and complex Excel workbooks, especially when entering large amounts of data, no one is
protected from accidental changes in formulas, formats and other spreadsheet elements. But you can protect
yourself from too much work on finding and eliminating such errors by protecting the individual spreadsheet
elements.
Combining text and formatted values
The Excel TEXT function enables you to specify numbers and date format.
