Good morning P Evetts Can't be done I'm afraid. Excel is not secure, and has never been advertised as such. There are a number of security settings within Excel that offer protection against inadvertant erasure / change of information. If you have something that shouldn't be seen by others, don't save it in Excel. If you really really must, I suppose you could use a third party program to encrypt / decrypt the file prior to opening it... A pain in the arse, but that's Excel for you.
