What is the individual box that appears in worksheet?

Toolbars are very useful. They give direct access to commands without having to go through the menu items. Excel offers many toolbars. To see a listing of all the available toolbars, click �View� on the Menu Bar and select �Toolbars.� A submenu appears displaying the toolbars. To select a toolbar simply click on it in the submenu. A check mark will appear in front of your selection and will now make that selection viewable from your worksheet.

Formula (or Function) Bar. The Formula Bar displays the contents of the active cell or the active block. It includes text, numbers, formulas, and functions.

Active Cell. The active cell is the currently selected cell. A thick border block, called the Cell Pointer, surrounds the active cell. Data is entered in the active cell.

Active Sheet. Often a file consists of more than one worksheet. Each sheet contains a tab you click to move from one sheet to another. You can rename sheets to make it easier to remember what each one contains. You may do so by double-clicking the sheet name, e.g., Sheet1, typing a new name, and tapping the ENTER key.

Worksheet Window. The worksheet window displays the Excel worksheet. It is comprised of rows and columns. The columns are labeled with the letters of the alphabet, i.e., A, B, C, etc. The rows are numbered down the left side. Rows and columns intersect to form cells. Each cell can be referenced via its column name followed by its row number. For example, the intersection of row 2 and column B is cell B2 (as shown in Figure 1, above).

How do you protect cells for certain AD members and share Excel O365 worksheets nowadays? I have applied Excel > Review > Allow Edit Ranges > New > RangeName > Cells > Permissions... > Add... > My AD User > Check Names > OK > Edit range without a password: Allow > OK > OK > OK, then protected the sheet by Review > Protect Sheet > Protect worksheet and contents of locked cells, Select locked cells, Select unlocked cells > OK, then shared the file by File > Share > Share with People > Share with People > Link settings. If I share the link for a) Anyone with the link, Allow editing is not available; b) People in My AD with the link > Allow editing, anyone in My AD can edit all cells even if they are not allowed to do so and the sheet is protected OR some people can edit all the cells but some are informed that the file is not editable; c) People with existing access, Allow editing is missing; d) Specific people > Allow editing, anyone in My AD can edit all cells even if they are not allowed to do so and the sheet is protected; So, what is the correct way to share a multi-user Excel sheet for several AD users so that each of them are able to enter data only in the cells that they are supposed to?

This may be lengthy and may not be able to be done, but hopefully.
Little background. I have a workbook with 16 tabs, 1 for each sales person we have.
1. I want to share this with everyong but want them to only have access to their tab.
2. In that tab I have columns up to something like BT and want them to see the fist 10 columns and then not see columns 11- BR. After that I want them to be able to see columns and edit cells from BU to xzy.
3. In the cells they can have checkboxes to click to tasks done and it will put a date in a hidden column to task tracking.
4. The task tracking will be done on dates provided by them on completetion of review dates for project sales so at least once a month they will need to be having conversations with their customers.
5. With this data on another tab I will want to set up alerts based on dates coming up for them to be notified that they have a review to be done. This will be a tab that will send out automated emails and also a places for the sales manager and GM to review timely repoting of reviews along with a tally of where we stand.

I need an excal angel right now.

Thanks,
Rob

Hi, sorry if this has already been asked...

I've created a shared file for my team to use when forecasting performance for the rest of the year. Each team member have their own forecast input and forecast summary tabs, with all tabs having the same layout.

The calculations all work fine, the problem is with the layout and format of what they see. I spend time each month adjusting the layout of the input tabs so they only see the cells they need to update - this involves, changing the groups of columns/rows to hiding/unhiding data, filtering data tables to the correct month(s), etc. However despite how the screens look when I save the file and pass it to them, when my team load the file they are presented with a different view to the one I've saved - cause by different cells/rows/columns showing on their screen to mine. This even happens if we open the same file at the same time.

How can I 'force' Excel to open and show the same cells on their computers as I see on mine? FYI - I'm using Excel 2013 and they are all still on 2007, could this be the reason they receive different views?
