Locking down propriety spreadsheets
Hi CFD,
A reply to a similar post from Dave Peterson:
If your intellectual property is that important, then don't use excel.
There's
nothing you can do to stop the theives from getting to your stuff.
Well, if you know anything about COM addins, you could compile your code.
But
that's beyond me.
Regards,
Howard

Having a little issue with some of our companies spreadsheets. People
outside the company are using password crackers to hack the
spreadsheets, and make changes, but are leaving our company name on the
results. Clearly we not only want to protect our IP, but also ensure
that our company is not associated with mangled spreadsheets, which
might not produce the correct results.
A simple password protection won't work, as it is too easy to hack that
.. is there anyway that we can lock them down more strongly?
