Hi all,

I have a problem when trying to distribute Excel file to several people. The
problem is with the Size.

The EXCEL file size is 7.90 MB.

Here's what happened:
1. When EXCEL is not password protected, Zip file size = 1.18Mb
2. When EXCEL is Sheet password protected for Sheet with or blank password,
the Zip file size = 1.18Mb
3. When EXCEL is Workbook password protected for Workbook with blank
password, the Zip file size = 1.18Mb

4. BUT ... When EXCEL is Workbook protected with Password, the Zip file size
= 7.24 Mb ????

Anybody know why the ZIP sizes are different?

p.s. It is necessary to protect the hidden sheets with workbook password
protected (so other normal people could not unhide), but with that size, it
is not wise to distribute through email.
