If they are using the "copies" on their hard drive to simplyfy the steps it
takes to get to the original, then maybe a shortcut to the original would
make it easy for everybody to have on their desktop.

Good morning!

I have a 2003 excel file posted to a network drive in which users are to
make daily entries. Is there a way to protect this file from being copied to
one's hard drive, or to the network? With 2 copies running, users think they
are entering data into the master file, but are only putting it into the
copy. Duplicate serial numbers occurr and it turns into a disaster to merge
the files.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Have a GREAT day!
