I actually linked the pertinent information to another page/hid the linked
page/and protect the workbook; this works for me :?)

I do appreciate your quick reply

You cannot. There is no "real" security. If you don't want someone to see
the information, remove it before you send the workbook.

Hello,

I am using Excel 2000. I also have some delicate files which I have
protected the sheets and workbook. In these protected sheets I have some
hidden rows / columns but I notice I can; select all/copy/past to a new
workbook, and this will reveal ALL the hidden information.

Q: How can I protect a worksheet / workbook from being copy and pasted to
a
new worksheet to reveal it's hidden information?
