Since a file can be copied outside of Excel, there is no way you can prevent
it from being copied.

Hi all,

I have two workbooks that contain crossed external links
to each other. In order to maintain the links between the
two files, would anyone have any ideas on how to;

(1) Disable the save / save as function within a workbook;
and

(2) Prevent a file from being copied.

Thanks for all ideas.

Regards,

Ciara
