  • Excel and smart T.V. Question

    Posted by Shane Parr on January 25, 2023 at 5:30 pm

    I have an issue i need to try and resolve. Some friends and I run 2 different trucks in order to sell items for a national company. Our end goal is to be able to have monitors or smart T.V.s on each truck that will allow us to update an excel program in real time so that both trucks can see the excel program in real time as well. Both trucks have their own laptop and cellular network capability. I would like it to be where if one of us board a truck and we DO NOT have our lap top with us we can still turn on the monitor/TV and see the excel spread sheet. What is the best way to achieve this goal?
    My thought was to use a Smart TV and just have it set to the Office 365 link that the excel spreadsheet is home to. Not sure if that would work or not. Thank you for any assistance anyone can provide.

    MS Office 365 will work for that purpose as it can be updated in real-time from multiple ends. You just need an app that will give you a web browser on your smart T.V.’s as well as some sort of cellular data connection that will give you a Mobile Hotspot on both trucks where you can connect the T.V.’s to WiFi.
