SUMMARYThe Merge Workbooks command (on the Tools menu) in Microsoft Excel 98 Macintosh Edition does not provide the same functionality as the "/File Combine" command in Lotus 1-2-3. MORE INFORMATIONThe differences between the Merge Workbooks command in Microsoft Excel 98 Macintosh Edition and the "/File Combine" command in Lotus 1-2-3 are described in the following sections. Merge WorkbooksThe Merge Workbooks menu command is used with the Shared Workbooks feature in Microsoft Excel 98 Macintosh Edition. A workbook can be shared between multiple users. As each user saves a copy of the file, you are left with multiple copies of the same shared workbook. This feature allows you to merge the copies of the shared workbook into one master file. The copy of the shared workbook that will be used as the master file must be active when you use this feature./File CombineThe /File Combine command in Lotus 1-2-3 is used to insert data from a file on a disk to the active cell in your current worksheet. When the data is taken from the file, you can add, subtract, or copy the new data to the data in the current worksheet. You also have the choice to combine the entire file or a named specified range of the file with the current worksheet.REFERENCESFor more information about Shared Workbooks, click the Office Assistant, type "shared workbooks," click Search, and then click to view the desired topic.
