Thanks for the reply.
No I don't beleive it is. But I'm not sure. On the review menu the Protect
Sheet command is grayed out. The Protect Workbook command operates and the
Unrestricted access control is checked. I did turn on change tracking on
this wookbook. Does this affect the wookbook protection state?
Thanks Bill
