you could use something like this to ask for a password before the workbook
is saved, but this can be defeated easily if someone knows much about excel

Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As
Boolean)
'must lock VBA project so you can't see the password in it
'Input box to verify password before saving
'put in this workbook module
Dim myPassword As String
myPassword = InputBox(prompt:="Please enter the password to proceed:", _
Title:="Password is required to save this file.")
'change password to what you want
If myPassword < "123" Then
MsgBox prompt:="Click OK to return to the workbook.", _
Title:="Correct password not entered", _
Buttons:=16
Cancel = True
Else
End If
End Sub

Is there a level of protection that I can set whereby a user can
edit/change
a workbook all they want EXCEPT that they can't save it?

TIA.
