Abstract: A method and system for communicating spreadsheet information between a distributor of a workbook and one or more contributors to the workbook is provided. A master workbook is created having one or more worksheets and assigning one or more contributors to each of the one or more worksheets. Embedded into each of the worksheets is a unique identifier for each of the one or more contributors to be assigned to the worksheet. The worksheets can then be distributed to the assigned contributors using the embedded identifier. After the assigned contributors receive the worksheets, each contributor can modify the received worksheets to which they have been assigned and return the modified worksheets to the distributor. The returned worksheets can be sorted and associated with the master workbook. The associated worksheets can be selectively merged into the master workbook.
