Resolve conflicting changes in a shared workbook


Sharing Made Easy continued...

When you are sharing something conflicts are bound to happen. A conflict happens when two users are both editing the same shared workbook and try to save changes that affect the same cell. Excel can keep only one of the changes in that cell. When the second user saves the workbook, Excel displays the RESOLVE CONFLICTS dialog box.

1. In the RESOLVE CONFLICTS dialog box, read the information about each change and the conflicting
changes made by the other user.
2. To keep your change or the other person's change and to advance to the next conflicting change, click
ACCEPT MINE or ACCEPT OTHER.
To keep all of your remaining changes or all of the other user's changes, click ACCEPT ALL MINE or ACCEPT ALL OTHERS.

To override resolve conflicts dialog
To have your changes override all other changes without displaying the RESOLVE CONFLICTS dialog box again,:
click SHARE WORKBOOK.
On the ADVANCED tab, under CONFLICTING CHANGES BETWEEN USERS, click THE CHANGES
BEING SAVED WIN, and then click OK.


Congrats! You have resolved your conflict :)

Do's and Don't SQL

Do's: Writing comments whenever something is not very obvious, as it won’t impact the performance.  (--) for single line  (/*…*/) to mark a section Use proper indentation Use Upper Case for all SQL keywords. SELECT, UPDATE, INSERT, WHERE, INNER JOIN, AND, OR, LIKE. Use BEGIN... END block for multiple statements in conditional code  Use Declare and Set in beginning of Stored procedure Create objects in same database where its relevant table exists otherwise it will reduce network performance. Use PRIMARY key in WHERE condition of UPDATE or DELETE statements as this will avoid error possibilities. If User table references Employee table than the column name used in reference should be UserID where User is table name and ID primary column of User table and UserID is reference column of Employee table. Use select column name instead of select * Use CTE (Common Table Expression); its scope is limited to the next statement in SQL query, instead of...

SQL Server 2008 - Inline Variable Assignment

Microsoft SQL Server 2008 brings in a new feature of 'Declaring and Assigning' a variable all in a single line. Earlier, while using SQL 2005 and earlier versions, we had to declare a variable before assigning it. This feature is explained in detail below. In SQL 2005 and earlier versions we had to write: Declare @age int Declare @name nvarchar(25) Declare @date date Set @age = 25 Set @name = "Garry" Set @date = GETDATE() With SQL 2008 we can combine both these statements to write Declare @age int = 25 Declare @name nvarchar(25) Declare @date @date = GETDATE() Advantage : This helps us to write less code, yet get the same functionality. Even though this feature has been available it is not being used in many projects because of backward compatibility issue. If the same code is being used on both 2005 and 2008 server we would prefer writing in a format compatible to both. Do share with us :  Would you like to use this new method? If not, why?
