Oh I get it. No, this is not the problem. The file in question is an XLA,
which we use all over the place. So the first person to get in in the morning
is granted write access and then me and my fellow developer are locked out.

Is there some way to prevent this? We added a password to the XLA, but that
didn't help the problem. What we'd really like is that anyone who opens it
gets it read-only, but if you type in the password then you get write access.
This seems to be the way the XLS would work, but not the XLA.

I assume this has something to do with the Add-In system, but I can't find
any details on this.
