Hi everyone,
When a XL file is shared among a group of users. Some would make changes to it and others open it just to view and exit excel without updating any info.
Apart from the usual techniques such as: tracking changes via XL or using workbook change events, comparing the physical file last saved date to that of the original backup file or a time consuming technique of running a subroutine to compare the contents of each individual cell to the original backup copy, would there be any other way to determine if the file has been tampered with?
Thanks in advance for your time and input in solving this question.
Regards
KP
