I want to unprotect my estimating workbook. My password works to open the
workbook but doesn't work to unprotect the workbook.
(1) If I choose toolsProtectionunprotect workbook and then enter my
password into the message box I get the message that the "password supplied
is not correct". Somewhere along the line my password became corrupt.
(2) If I choose FileSave As and click General OptionsPasswords to Open and
highlight the asterisks then Delete then Click OKSaveYes to replace the
existing workbook and then I close the workbook. When I reopen the workbook
it is still protected.
How can I unprotect the workbook? My goal is to protect the Master copy of
the Estimating Workbook with a password to open so others cant open the
Master Workbook and make changes. Then I want to open the Master Workbook and
save a copy of the workbook with a specific project name without the
protection. Then the estimators can use the project specific workbook without
the password. Thanks for your help.
