In Reply To: Is it "not professional" to edit onto others' spreadsheet directly? My counterpart at another firm replied a mass email telling me that "editorializing" on his spreadsheet is not professional after I replied sent out his file to another party, highlighting some rows & inserting comments to help the other party understand the issue we were discussing. Since when is it not professional to insert comments/highlight some rows in the spreadsheet? Am I missing something?
Message: how else would you communicate your thoughts. the only thing i would add - make sure you rename the file in an appropriate way so that people can keep track of the discussion
