Protecting workbooks
How do I protect the workbook so that only I can make changes?
Thank you
Sarah
RE: Protecting workbooks
Hi Sarah, I would suggest when you are happy with the document you make it read only so the orginal is always kept safe. You can do this by File, Properties, General Tab, Read only
Hope that helps

RE: Protecting workbooks
Thanks Tracy - but the attributes are greyed out so I cannot select the read only. Why would this be???
RE: Protecting workbooks
Hiya Sarah,
Have you tried closing the file and applying the read-only on the icon. So you are in the folder containing the file and you can right-click on the file and go down to properties and see if the box is available from there. Failing that you may find you have network issues whereby you are not allowed to create read only files. If it is your home computer or your laptop you should find this is available. Let me know
Tracy
