How do I stop someone saving a web downloaded workbook?
I am producing a quick reference workbook for people to search for data
specific items. I do not want them to save the workbook as this may prevent people visiting the website and as the data changes frequently could result in them using out of date data. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks Jo |

How do I stop someone saving a web downloaded workbook?
Hi,
The only way is to protect the worksheet, so you can limit the access to what you want them to do, in excel 2007 go to Review, Protect sheet If this helps please click yes, thanks "Jojo999" wrote: I am producing a quick reference workbook for people to search for data specific items.

You may want to convert the file to PDF and then use the PDF protections to
prevent people from saving the file. The PDF file can still be searched using the PDF capabilities. You will need the Adboe Writer to be able to convert the files.
