I have an Excel file that was originally protected and I have the password
to unprotect. I then save the file. When I try to re-open it asks me for the
password again.
I need to send this file to someone else via email without it being
protected....same thing!

What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
 
Wally,

Did you delete the password from the dialog box when you saved it for the
second time?

Yes.
Doesnt matter what I do when I try to re-open file still asks for original
password. Even if I change it.
 
Hi Wally,

So I take it from what you say that even if you change the passowrd if does
not *take* and you still have to use the original one to open the workbook?
Sorry but I cannot reproduce the problem. I can only suggest that you copy
all the sheets to a new workbook and save again under a new name.

Hi Wally

have you tried file / save as with a new name - maybe on a local hard drive
