have been trying to protect a spreadsheet to send out to Budget Responsible
Officers, I have followed the steps through the help menu and have protected the sheets but as soon as they are e-mailed to someone else then the protection has gone?

Copy and paste will often break it and if that doesn't work, there are many useful password crackers out there that will. If you don't want other to see something, don't send it to them :) Will copy/paste special/values help you out here ? That will at least take out the formulae. HTH |
