I don't know if his question is allready asked, but i think it would be a nice implementation if you could update the sheet if someones has added new data in Excel directly, so that the sheet can be only visible to someone and that the updates are loaded when someone with the correct rights pushes the update button.
or the possibility to save the sheet when you've done a update

Are you referring to several users editing the same sheetnode simultaneously, like in Google Docs?

no,
i'll try to explain it a little bit better.

suppose you have a file called basic.xls anywhere with a sheet in it.
now the owner of the file edits this file and the drupal site's webmasters uploads this trough sheetnode.
but the owner of the file does in his office program some adjustments to the file. because he only want to make adjustments in his program. for to see this adjustments you have to delete the old file you've uploaded and create a new sheetnode containing the newly added data of the excel file.
so why not make it possible you can update the file directly from the sheetnode on the site?

consider in mind that the uploaded sheetnode is only read mode.

Thanks for the explanation. The ability to render a Sheetnode directly from a file is on the roadmap.

Is it already possible to save data a user has entered in Fiddle mode?
