_Workbook.ExclusiveAccess Method

Assigns the current user exclusive access to the workbook that's open as a shared list.

Namespace:  Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel
Assembly:  Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel (in Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Function ExclusiveAccess As Boolean
'Usage
Dim instance As _Workbook
Dim returnValue As Boolean

returnValue = instance.ExclusiveAccess()
bool ExclusiveAccess()

Return Value

Type: System.Boolean

Remarks

The ExclusiveAccess method saves any changes you've made to the workbook and requires other users who have the workbook open to save their changes to a different file.

If the specified workbook isn't open as a shared list, this method fails. To determine whether a workbook is open as a shared list, use the MultiUserEditing property.
