Share a sheet with another user and they see a "This file is locked for editing byĪdmittedly, simultaneous shared editing via the cloud is perhaps most useful in Word, but there are many circumstances where other types of document would benefit from the feature. In PowerPoint, changes made by other users aren't highlighted, they merely appear, and there's no equivalent to Word's Tracking feature to help make sense of them.
