I have this strange problem. we have a network of 70 users, there are several excel documents that when opened by "user A" it states "user X" has the document open, when the actual user who has the document open is "user B" its really a pain trying to find out who actually has the document open - there are ways of doing this but its more of a workaround than a fix and is a lot more time consuming
Ive checked the obvious things and "user X" is not the author of these docs, also it is excel always says the same user "user X" has the document open. even when its user's B,C,or D etc who has the doc open
I don't think Excel reads the user name from the network login, but instead from the name of the individual you typed in when you ran MS Office setup. Look at Help => About in Excel and see if the name there supports that theory.
