Have a file which i need password protecting so that only I can get into it. Can it be done and if so how ??

Plus, if i password protect it , will i still be able to send it to others or not ??

You need to click on File>save as

then on the window that opens, click on Tools

There should be security options to add a password.

Right ok thanks, will try that.

What if you open a new file. Copy and paste it to that file, and then try save as again?

nutcackle · 06/10/2005 20:02

Ok will try that. Failing that I'll have to download from email again and save again.

It's either that or never ever leave the computer again

nutcackle · 06/10/2005 20:19

ROFL, honestly it's really not that exciting.

It's a piccie of an ex and his dd. Nothing going on etc etc but dp would go ballistic if he knew i'd been emailing him nevermind had a piccie of him (said pic is lush by the way )

See, told you it wasn't interesting.
