access protection
Hi all,
How do you prevent users from altering a visio diagram but allow alterations yourself? If you use the read only function a user can change this property back to write access. Saving as a web page is not really what I am after. Any ideas? Is there a more permanent way of protecting my files from alterations? Many thanks

Keep the master safe and distribute a copy saved as one of the various image
types that Visio can Save As. The copy will be hard to change and be far smaller than the Visio drawing. John... Visio MVP "octo" wrote in message ...
