Password opens as read only?
 
I have set my workbook to have a password under the options tabSecurity. My
question is when I went in to open it again, I hit cancel on the password
request and it did open the file as read only.

I don't want anyone to be able to open the file at all, is there a way to
set this up in excel?

Hi jjacob. With Excel 2003 you can go to SaveAs - Tools - General and set
your password there. HTH
