Locking Worksheet Security Name
 

In my old MS Word version, pre-2007, I was able to lock my worksheet with my
password and a number at the end. Example--abcdef2009. Now, since I got
2007, I can't lock it with the number. I type in the abcdef2009 and a window
pops up to confirm, which I do, then I get another window saying the
passwords don't match, but if I remove the number at the end it closes fine.
Why won't it accept the number?

Hi Mumsy,

You're doing you best to confuse us here referring to MS Word having
worksheets. I'm sure (hope) you mean MS Excel worksheets.

Now then abcdef2009 is a perfectly acceptable worksheet protection password
and if your getting an error I suspect you're mis-typing. Be aware that
passwords are case sensitive.

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.
