Hello guys,
I Don't want to bore you with details.
I have Excel spreadsheet which I would like to be accessed from any PC with
internet connection.
What I would like to do is to host the workbook on-line and issue logins to
selected users so that they can access it (view or change contents depending
on login rights).
My question to you is: what software/hardware do I need to host the
spreadsheet on-line and manage it also allowing me to assign logins to users?
I found online solutions (like Google Docs) to have certain restrictions -
like size of the file - which in my case exeeds 5MB.
I would really appreciate your help.
Thank you in anticipation!
Martin Thardis

This is notoriously dangerous ground with Excel. There is some light at the
end of the tunnel, but it is not an inexpensive solution and in this
iteration it is very much V1. The solution may be Excel Services. This ships
with SharePoint Server 2007 and uses an instance of Excel 2007 on the server
to render cells, sheets, workbooks on browsers to anyone logged into a
SharePoint server web site.

I am sure there are hosts out there who offer remote hosting or you can host
it yourself as a intra, inter, or extra net solution on Windows 2003 server.

Not sure if this is the level you need to go to, but is a solution of sorts
