Share Excel File that is password protected

Hello all

I have published a workbook in our shared area at work. It's massive and also has another workbook linked to it.

Both are password protected so are only available for viewing. But tons of people need to see them particularly the source file which is no problem because they can't change anything so can choose 'read only'.

However the problem is when I need to go in there to make a couple of alteration, I have to wait until they close it or of course as is typical, they will leave their desk and forget to close it!!

I haven't used the sharing workbook option although I've tried it and shown one of our departments to use it basically.

I was wondering if this would be possible on a file that is password protected and is locked on every sheet.

That way I can just go in when I need to even if someone's in there.

This is an extremely important file that can not go wrong.  (I do have a backup)

What are your views on this option and what is the best way to go about it?

Thanks
