Public Access Spreadsheet

[Guest]

I'm not sure if this is a Frontpage question or a web host question....but as
my web host is yet to get back to me I'd REALLY appreciate any insight from
one more experienced!

I have a spreadsheet that I would like 5 people (in 5 different states) to
be able to open, add information to and save. I put a link on my website to
a password protected Excel spreadsheet and everyone can open it....but is
there a public access folder within Front Page where I could save the
spreadsheet on the server and all 5 people can add/save info - without them
having my username/password for the entire website?

I look forward to any advice anyone might have

By design for security reason, users (including your 5 trusted people)
cannot save the file back to the server. When they open the spreadsheet,
they are actually looking at local copy that was downloaded off the server.

The way you can add files to to web sites, the user must have the
permissions to publish add files to the site.

If you can use an Access DB in place of an Excel spreadsheet, you can
give have the ability to add/delete/modify DB records using ASP pages
and you can limit those features to your trusted persons.
