Read Only spreadsheet
have a spreadsheet that is used by many of us. Recently, we all get the
following message: "budget.xls. cannot be accessed. The file may be read-only, or you may be trying to access a read only location. Or, the server this document is stored on may not be responding" I've copied the file to my local hard drive and it still gives me this message. My fear is someone accidentally setup some security on the file and did not realize he/she did it or if they did, they won't fess up to it. How do I remove this security? I'm the administrator of this file and have to provide access to it for everyone. |

Read Only spreadsheet
Debra Dalgleish has a suggestion that usually works for standalone pc's:
http://contextures.com/xlfaqApp.html#ReadOnly But if the file is on a network, maybe rebooting that server would help. Pearl wrote: have a spreadsheet that is used by many of us.
