Hi there,<br />
<br />
Is there any way of sharing an Excel workbook which resides on a network drive, which contains external data sources?<br />
<br />
At the moment when I am trying to share the document, I get an error saying that it contains Excel tables and XML maps, and these must be removed in order to share the document.<br />
<br />
Is there any way around this? As its a pain to keep adding the data sources when we want to refresh the data and bring in the new data from the external source.<br />
<br />
Cheers,<br />
<br />
Nick

Sharing an Excel workbook with external data source.

Microsoft Excel topics include formulas, formatting, VBA macros and user-defined functions, and everything else related to the spreadsheet user interface, including error messages.

Microsoft Excel

A spreadsheet is an interactive computer application program for organization, analysis and storage of data in tabular form. Spreadsheets developed as computerized simulations of paper accounting worksheets. The program operates on data represented as cells of an array, organized in rows and columns. Each cell of the array may contain either numeric or text data, or the results of formulas that automatically calculate and display a value based on the contents of other cells.
