Thanks Patrice,

Actallty Excel file containts sensitive data and anybody can forget to
delete file from desktop once changes are uploaded to server as new version
for that excel file.
Client want excel to open in browser as our reguler web page (like active-x
control/ applet in browser). As well there will be button called Upload
changes.

On clicking Upload Changes button we have save this excel file to sever as
new version with predefined algo for version number.
