Default Opening a password-protected spreadsheet from a website link

hi, !

try from windows-explorer / MyPC / ...
- tools folder options... {tab} file types
- locate (each) EXTension for your xl* files
- click advanced options... {button}
- UNcheck "explore on same window" (or something like that)
(sorry... my OS is in spanish)

you / them shall do the above on each pc

hth,
hector.

__ OP __
Is it possible to open a password-protected excel spreadsheet from a link on our website?
What I am trying to do is permit people with the proper password to access the file from our web site link.
When you click on the link to open the file, doesn't even open the dialog box asking for the password.
Is there a way I can get Excel to open the password dialog box rather than just refuse to open - period?
I use Yahoo Sitebuilder as my website builder - if it makes a difference. Thank you!
