Just save the file as 'Read Only'
Go File Save As Tools (on the right of the dialogue box) General Options Choose 'Password To Modify' Follow the prompts for the password and that's it done, Regards, Alan.

Give it a (memorable!) password to modify. (Don't use the password to open.) Paperback Writer wrote: Is there a way to password protect an Excel document, but allow for READ ONLY access if the user doesn't know the password? -- Dave Peterson |
