My company has multiple reviewers/editors of a macro-enabled document that often changes significantly during the review process. We had just been passing the document around via email and we now want to use OneDrive for version control. One of the reviewers is reporting that OneDrive does not allow concurrent review/editing of macro-enabled documents. Has anyone here had similar problems?

I haven't used OneDrive for shared concurrent editing so I don't have a suggestion there but I wouldn't think having macros in the document itself is a great idea. Is there a reason you don't have the macros in a template which is shared by the users? Doing so would enable you to save the file as a docx and perhaps avoid the issue you are experiencing.

Guessed - Thanks for the response. The macros need to be enabled throughout the review/editing process so it needs to stay as a docm file. Yes, I would prefer using true templates (dotm), but there's something about the way the company configured Office that prevents us from using them as designed. I've never gotten a clear answer as to why, but it is what it is.

This page seems to imply that a docm is also editable concurrently (co-authoring).

It does say that you can't CHANGE macros without checking the file out but you should be able to edit the document and RUN macros concurrently.
