Share and Review a Spreadsheet

As we know, teamwork is the process of working collaboratively with a group of people in order to achieve a
goal. Nowadays, Calc is widely used for teamwork. When you collaborate with others, you may be required to
work on the same Calc sheet. Normally, this is not possible. In Calc, if you are working on a file then no one can
edit it as it will open in read-only mode while sharing the workbook.
Sharing a workbook with others is an efficient way of collaborating on same data. By sharing a Calc file, you
are giving other users access to the same document and allowing them to make edits simultaneously that saves
you the trouble of keeping track of multiple versions. Using this feature, multiple people can work on the same
workbook at the same time.
