Workbook with 2 users but 2nd user does not need to view all worksheets

I have a budget workbook with individual worksheets for each budget code. Plus, I have summary worksheets that gather the information from the individual budget code worksheets to produce a main budget worksheet, and one budget worksheet for each department, plus a employee salary worksheet - all which need to remain confidential.

 

I need to allow my Business Manager to access and update the individual budget code worksheets but not have any access to the sensitive summary worksheets or the salary worksheet.

 

I have researched sharing the workbook and protecting the worksheets. But this only protects the information in the worksheets but not the actual access of the worksheets.

 

If I hide them, they can be unhidden.

I also wonder if there is a way that I can only share certain worksheets and not the whole workbook?

 

Also, thought I could send her a copy of the workbook with the private worksheets deleted then when she is ready to reconcile, she can send me her edited copy and perhaps merge the two?

 

I tried replacing her sheets with my sheets (copy/move) but my formula's and links were then broken.

 

Another thought is to have to workbooks: Mine (the original) and Her's (a copy) (either on the same network or not) and the two workbooks be linked/connected in someway as when one is edited the other is updated. I have tried to follow directions on this scenerio several times but cannot get it to work.

 

The ideal would be to have one workbook, I have access to all sheets and she has access to only certain sheets. Any suggestions?

 

Thank you for your attention and consideration of this issue.

 

Kindest Regards,

TFrashier
