For the past 6 months (roughly) I have been pestered by the classic problem of trying to save a workbook only to get a message saying I can't because it's in a hold for editing by a shared facility (unnamed). Also I frequently got the message when I open a workbook that it is currently READ-ONLY. This was happening to me about 1 to 3 times a day. Restarting the computer clears it, but sometimes only for a short time.
Then about a week ago I bought the Advanced System Optimizer (www.systweak.com) and I use its registry cleaner regularly. I have no explanation, but suddenly all the Read-Only and shared access problems went away. Maybe I'm reporting this too soon, but I thought it was worth mentioning. I'll report again if I start having the problems again. :clap:
