If both PC's are on the network, just create a folder on your PC, place the file(s) in there and share the folder (Right-click on the folder and select Sharing and Security) Give yourself permission and you'll be able to access the folder and edit the file from both locations.

You may want to switch between shared and protected workbooks. Go to your Excel's Help and see the difference between the two. It will also help you set the workbook up how you want it.\n\nSHARED-   If you want several users to work in the same workbook simultaneously, you can save the workbook as a shared workbook. Users can then enter data, insert rows and columns, add and change formulas, and change formatting. How to set up a shared workbook.\n\nLimit viewing and editing of an individual worksheet\nWhen you protect the worksheet, the cells and graphic objects that you did not unlock in steps 2 and 3 are protected and cannot be changed.\n\nPROTECTED SHEETS-\nSwitch to the worksheet you want to protect.\n\nUnlock any cells that you want to be able to change after you protect the worksheet.

If you saved it to a network drive (ie 'cos you're at work) as opposed to your PC's harddisk, then your IT support people might be able to salvage the previous version(s). It depends how they have things configured.\nAlso IF you had Word configured to save backup copies (see Tools-Option-Save tab "always create backup copy" option) then it would have created a *.wbk file in the same directory as the latest version. Don't save again though or you will loose that backup too.

The only type of thing that lets you update files later on is an FTP or a File Transfer Protocol. I have no idea how to set one of those up though, but the file would actually be downloaded from your computer.\n\nOtherwise, just use yousendit.com. It's very easy to use, although you'll have to upload the file again after you update it.

After draggin the file into Excel, your database will take only one column.\nSelect that column and go to Data > Text to columns to start the wizard you need to convert it.\n\nXLMan

Buy a router, so you can LOG into the internet with that, and share your connection.   The router also estabilishs a network, so you can share files between computers.  \n\nI recommend against wireless, unless you MUST.   A wired network is much easier.

The easiest way to do this, that would not require very much programming knowledge at all would be to use the 'Publish as Webpage' feature in excel.\n\nYou can set it so that every time the spreadsheet is updated and saved, it also saves a file, readable by internet explorer, into a folder of your choice. This way you can reference the file in the rest of your site or in a frame or whatever.

I have found this to be an intermittent glitch in the program. Not sure what or why. Most of the time, it works fine. Every now and then, after creating a new excel document, I run into this problem.\n\nMy get around on this is to take an existing .xls document that cooperates and modify then save. Make sure to rename the file as to not overwrite the original.

You can share the internet connection between both computers by using a router.\n\nThese updates are for internet protection. The files are useless for the other computer.

Are you referring to Microsoft Excel?  It's a commercial program and it is illegal to just download it.  If you're a student, check with your school's bookstore to see if you can get a discounted "student" version.\n\nOr, better still, check out http://www.openoffice.org\n\nThe OpenOffice.org suite is a free open source office suite that's mostly compatible with Microsoft Office files.  You'll have to re-learn where some of the commands are, but it's not too bad.  The best part is that it's put out there by people who want to give it away for free.

Unfortunately, as the name suggests, Win32::OLE is strictly for Windows. However, you might consider SpreadSheet::WriteExcel if you want to just write excel files in a cross-platform manner.

Since your requirement is simple, I suggest you to better to develop a small program by yourself by using MS Excel or MS Access. These softwares are available in all the PCs.

I'm guessing you have the computer connected to a router through a cable. As long as the laptop and PC are both connected to the same router either wireless or with wires, you can connect them. You have to set up a workgroup.\n\nThe easiest way to do this is to go to Start then click control panel. Open the icon labeled System. Now click the tab that says computer name. It will have a button labeled Change... under the workgroup name. Type in a name for your workgroup. Now do the same on both computers.\nIf you want to be able to move files or transfer anything you have to set up sharing on anything you want to move.\n\nYou can set up sharing on either a file or an entire folder. Right click the file/folder and click "Sharing and Security...".  You'll see an area labeled Network sharing and security. Click the box next to share this folder on the network. If you want to change the name or allow users to transfer files to this folder you need to check the box next to allow network users to change... then click OK.\n\nYou will need to restart for this to work. It should tell you that.

You should be able to just say "File Save As..." from Excel. XML should be one of the choices. You may need to clean it up a bit.
