RE: Password protection

Hi William

To protect the contents of an Excel worksheet you do the following:

1. In the Tools menu, Select Protect
2. Click Protect Sheet

A dialog box appears allowing you to enter a password (although this is optional)

3. Enter the password and click OK

4. A new dialog box will ask you to Confirm the password.
5. Re-enter the password and clickOK.

NB. This will protect the contents of that entire worksheet. This is because Excel protects worksheet cells that are "Locked"- and all Excel worksheet cells come locked as a default.

Hope this helps

Carlos

Excel tip:

Enter formulae into multiple cells

If a formula is to be used in a series of cells, select the cells first. Now type in your formula and hold the Ctrl key while you press Enter. This enters the formula in each selected cell.

Just be careful with your absolute and relative cell references.
