Sharing Applications with more than one user at a time?
Posted by Bob on December 29th, 2005


Is there a way to share an application with a group of people at the same
time? I telecommute with a team of 6 people and we need to work together all
the time.

What I would like to do is open an Excel file and let all of them view it at
the same time.

If not, is there anything else I could use?

thanks

Greetings Bob,

Not exactly, what you can use is Netmeeting. To do, simply click Start, then Run, type
"conf" and click OK. Then have each person connect to one person's IP address and use the
Application Sharing capability within Netmeeting.
