If multiple users are using a shared workbook with mulitple tabs, is it possible to make active tabs read only to everyone else?
So say I go into a worksheet first, to other people this will appear read only until I go to another worksheet, preventing people from updating the same tab at the same time and overwiritng eachothers information.
I'm open to any better suggestions...

Tell them not to update anything.

Probs easier all round to make each tab an individual document.

Thats what they asked me for originally, I could do a summary workbook that pulls it all together, just wondered if there was an easier way.
I've said that ideally they need to be using Access.

I suffer the same problems here. We have to input numbers in a spreadsheet and I've made it shared in the past, but one girl working for me is so fucking retarded and since it limits some functionality it did more harm than good and just caused me ear ache. Ended up seperating them and doing a summary workbook like you suggested.
