Hey Folks. Excel 2000 with service pack 3. There is a file on my company
network that from what I'm told has always been password protected. All of a
sudden a user opens the file and it doesn't ask for a password. She goes back
in and it appears and passeord-protects the file however, it does not stick.
I don't have another users machine to test the file on so it is a little
difficult right now. Any ideas what could have happened or what can I do to
repair?
 
try a totally different password
there is at least one that has no effect, like what you are describing
Also check it is the file open password and not a read-only one or workbook
structure one

cheers
Simon
