Document Security - Excel
Document is emailed from party A, to party B and then to party C (me). I want
to insure that party B is not changing anything in the document prior to sending to party C. Is there anything that party A can do to insure that party B can not make any changes. Thank You. |

Hi,
You can protect with a password the worksheet, however it can be easily bread with some of the programs available in the market if this helps please say yes, thanks "Boboluis" wrote: Document is emailed from party A, to party B and then to party C (me).

Thanks. But how do I know that Party A is the one that protects? My situation
is that I do not know party A and have to trust that an invoice price quoted by party A is not changed by party B. Thanks.

Hi,
One way is you creating the spreadsheet with a button that will protect it before sending it to party B, in that way only you will know the password and you will be the only one to edit it, "Boboluis" wrote: Thanks.

Excel internal security is very weak.
There is nothing PA can do to ensure PB cannot make changes. If PB is to only see but not alter the workbook, I would suggest PA sends the workbook as a PDF file to PB and at the same time sends the workbook to PC as an Excel file.

Thanks. If you can't/won't trust Party B perhaps you better get introduced to Party A and have him/her send you the spreadsheet directly. Bill |
