Is there anyway to amend the excel file so this doesnt happen, so multiple people can access the file at the same time, edit it and save it?
If not possible its fine, just thought it might be?

Not ideal I agree, but in most projects I've worked on where people don't communicate with each other, this is the best way. I normally use it on issues registers or project registers where cells are updated simultaneously. If you update one cell (say D5), and someone updates another (say T8), then both will be saved, alleviating the loss of data from either user.

I'm pretty sure there is a simple way around this one, but when i get an outlook email with an excel attachment, i need to update details on attachment then send back, but unless i save the spreadsheet onto my harddrive, make changes then save as, then email back separately it.
I want to be able to open attachment, change it, press save then reply back. alot quicker. But if i try it that way, it just sends back the original attachment with no changes?

When you open the attachement, the file will be saved in a temp folder on your hard-drive. Simply make your changes, press save, then go to the office button in the top left hand corner (for Excel 2007) and select 'Send', then 'Email'. This will take the current file you have open (including and changes) and attach it to an email, which you can fire back to whoever you need to.

Can I format a cell in a spreadsheet that has a date, to automatically put in today's date(or the current date) each time I open it?
Cheers
