Attributes

Description

diskRevisions (Disk Revisions)

A Boolean value indicating that this shared workbook file contains revisions. True when the workbook does have revisions, false otherwise.

[Note: this attribute is used for backwards compatibility. end note]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema boolean datatype.

exclusive (Exclusive Mode)

A Boolean value indicating that this shared workbook is in exclusive mode.

A workbook is in exclusive mode when a user has a lock on it for appending revisions to the file.

[Note: This is used for backwards compatibility with older spreadsheet applications. end note]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema boolean datatype.

guid (Last Revision GUID)

The globally unique identifier of the last set of revisions. This shall match the GUID for the most recent header.

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_Guid simple type (§3.18.41).

history (History)

A Boolean value indicating that this shared workbook maintains a revision history. True if a history is maintained, false otherwise.

[Note: This is used for backwards compatibility with older spreadsheet applications. end note]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema boolean datatype.

keepChangeHistory (Keep Change History)

A Boolean value indicating whether the revision history should be kept for this shared workbook. True if the history should be kept, false otherwise.

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema boolean datatype.

lastGuid (Last GUID)

Unique identifier of the last set of revisions that was saved into the file.

Note: The spreadsheet application may have certain modes, such as a timed save mode, where the application doesn't do a full save, but instead just appends the most recent revision records. In cases like this, for a new user that opens such a file while it is being edited, the file that was loaded from disk will only have the changes that were saved during a full save. To get the current state of the file which includes edits by other users, the spreadsheet application would need to apply all the revisions from lastGuid to guid.

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_Guid simple type (§3.18.41).

preserveHistory (Preserve History)

An integer representing the number of days the spreadsheet application will keep the change history for this workbook.

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema unsignedInt datatype.

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema boolean datatype.
