Tracking changes, protection and filters

I think I've tried asking this before, but just in case anyone can help .........

we need to protect headers and footers in Excel 2003, and in the same documents also use filters.

we also need to protect sections in Word and in the same documents also use track changes.

Can these things be achieved and if so, how please?

RE: tracking changes, protection and filters

Dear Liz

Thank you for your question.

I believe both of them can be achieved quite straight forwardly.

I am assuming that you do know how to protect a sheet. In Excel When you choose Tools> Protection > Protect sheet

Word tip:

Using the status bar in Word

The status bar (the grey area at the bottom of the Word screen) tends to be underutilised as most people are not familiar with what it can be used for. Here are a shortcuts that can be accessed through the status bar:

Double-click the page number or section number on the status bar to open the Find and Replace feature.

Double-click REC to stop recording a macro.

Double-click TRK to turn Track Changes on or off.

Double-click EXT to turn extension mode on or off when selecting text.

Double-click OVR to turn off Overtype mode. Overtype is where you type and the text in front of your cursor gets replaced by the text you are currently typing, one character at a time. This usually gets turned on accidently when the Insert key is inadvertently pressed.

Double-click Language to change the Language format to something different.

Double-click the Spelling and Grammar Status icon to begin fixing spelling or grammatical errors.
