hey there whoever may read this...
this issue has been solved...
the workaround is to share the workbook in "tools > share workbook"
I still don't know why windows didn't have read access when the mac had write access... but that doesn't matter to me any more because sharing write access...
ok here's the deal...
There is an excel document on a server running microsoft server 2003.
There is a windows machine
There is a mac.
If I am writing to the excel sheet on the windows machine then I can open the excel sheet as read-only on the Mac... this is fine and to be expected of course...
