Password protect column
I have a spreadsheet that I have to email to others. The spreadsheet contains columns that I need/have to hide. Any one knows how I can password protect and hide a column so that the secretary who presents the final work does not have access to sensitive info?

Password protect column
It sounds like you're talking about an Excel file. This NG is for Word.

Password protect column
Hi Ash,
Hiding a column in Excel doesn't prevent access - just display. Cheers "Ash" wrote in message ... I have a spreadsheet that I have to email to others.

Password protect column
If you are referring to Excel, you can hide the Column(s), then Password
Protect the Worksheet (ToolsProtectionProtect Sheet). Just make sure that you turn off the Locked Format property (FormatCellsProtection) of any cells the other users may need to edit.
