Is it possible to place an Excel file onto a website and allow users to edit
the file and save the changes onto the server? I have a file that I want to
utilize as an availability log and have each person enter their
availability. If this is possible how can I accomplish this? Thanks.

Hi Matt,

Welcome to MSDN newsgroup!

For your issue, I suggest you publish your excel files under WebDav
extension in IIS. It allows clients to write or modify files via http
protocol. The article shows us how to use WebDav in IIS as below:

Additionally, when you access the file from client, you need to clean the
buffer because IE has caches.
