Unable to Unprotect a 2003 .xls file
My company recently upgraded to 2007. I had a file that was protected and
only certain cells could be modified, for data entry. I now need to manipulate the file but I am unable to unprotect the file. The €śunprotect sheet€ť button is not available. How do I unlock the protection? |

If the file is shared you need to unshare it first as that option is not
available in shared workbooks... -- HTH... Jim Thomlinson "r25ramirez" wrote: My company recently upgraded to 2007.
