Prevent users from changing the password
I have a file that is on a shared drive that multiple users use. The file is
not saved as a shared workbook. The file is password protected and all users know the password. Is there a way to prevent users from changing the password when they are re-protecting the workbook after they have made changes? I also have found that if I protect a workbook some one who has the password can then protect and share the work book putting a new password over mine thus not allowing me to edit the workbook. Is there any way to restrict users from doing this? |
Prevent users from changing the password
Is there a way to prevent users from changing the password
when they are re-protecting the workbook after they have made changes? No but what do you mean 're-protecting'? They just have to do a quick Ctrl-s to save not go through the whole protect procedure again. The password sticks until changed. -- Jim "roel1973" wrote in message ... |I have a file that is on a shared drive that multiple users use. The file is | not saved as a shared workbook.
