how to save /make excel file as read only?
Hello,
I need to save an excel file as a read only file for viewing from a website. How to save it as read only? I really need to save the file as an xml file. Excel already does that, and the xml file opens up inside IE. But I need that file to be read only. I am thinking that if I make the excel file read only - when I save it down as xml the xml will copy the read only attribute. But how to make the file read only? Thanks, Rich |
