Default Workbook access


Hi!
I am not the system administrator here so I have limited
autherizations.

Is there a way to create a workbook, or a code I can put in the
workbook that would prevent anyone from opening the workbook or at
least prevent them from seing any part of the work book except what I
wanted them to see?

Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions!!

You can hide any workbooks, sheets, rows, or columns you don't want anyone to
see, then protect it. when you protect a sheet or workbook, you can set a
password to it and choose what the user can/can't do

But Excel is not a secure application. If someone wants what's in a
workbook, it can be had.
