Export in Excel, Password Protection

Although I don't use Excel much, I understand it is commonplace when sending an Excel spreadsheet as an email attachment to Password Protect it. I just converted a Numbers document to Excel via Export, but can't send it if I can't password protect it. I see nothing about this, either for Excel exportation or even for Numbers documents. Am I missing it somewhere? Help.

If you exported as an excel file, then password protect it in Excel. Use the security "tab" in excel program options to set a password to open the file.
Numbers does not support password protected files yet, submit "feedback" using that option under the numbers menu and request it.
Hope this helps,
jason

Downloading Lion has wiped out excel and word. Numbers can't open a password protected excel document

How do I access Excel on my Mac after downloading Lion. I get the message that Power PC applications are no longer supported. numbers won't open excel password protected documents

Well, check that this is Pro workstation, not Lion, and not MBP....
Rosetta / PowerPC is not supported, so you must also have an out of date version of Office like 2004 or earlier. 2008 and 2011 do work, though there may be 3rd party extensions or plug-ins that do not.

OLE2 Excel File Save as password protected

Hi All,
I would like to save an Excel File as Password protected.
This File is created by OLE2.
How can I do this?
This is the Coding, how I save the File-->
CALL METHOD OF ls_wbook 'SaveAs' EXPORTING #1 = p_file.
Thanks for the Answers...
Bye
Besi

Hello Besi,
The following code should work. Try it out.
CALL METHOD OF document 'Protect' EXPORTING
                         #1 = 2
                         #2 = -1
                         #3 = 'password'.
CALL METHOD OF documents 'Save'.
Here 'document' is the 'ActiveDocument' object.
How to get the 'document' object:
    CREATE OBJECT worddoc 'Word.Document'.
    GET PROPERTY OF worddoc 'Application' = wordapp.
GET PROPERTY OF wordapp 'ActiveDocument' = document.
Regards,
Jitendar

Excel download Password Protected

Hi Guru's,
I need to Download an Excel with Password Protected. User should be in a position to read the data without entering the password. If he wants to change the data then the file should prompt for a password. Currently I am using the below mentioned code but the file is asking for password even to view the data.
Code :
create object e_appl 'EXCEL.APPLICATION'.
set property of e_appl 'VISIBLE' = 0.
* Open the file
call method of e_appl 'WORKBOOKS' = e_wbooklist.
get property of e_wbooklist 'Application' = e_appl .
set property of e_appl 'SheetsInNewWorkbook' = 1 .
call method of e_wbooklist 'Add' = e_work .
get property of e_appl 'ActiveSheet' = e_sheet .
set property of e_sheet 'Name' = 'Test' .
field_value = sy-index.
    shift field_value left deleting leading space.
clear field_value.
*1.Action
    concatenate 'Action' field_value into field_value separated by space.
* Position to specific cell in Column 1
    call method of e_appl 'Cells' = e_cell
           exporting
*                #1 = sy-index
                #2 = 1.
* Set the value
    set property of e_cell 'Value' = field_value.
** Close the file

   call method of e_work 'SAVEAS'
        exporting
            #1 = p_file
            #2 = 1
            #3 = 'password'
            #4 = 'password'.

Hi Pranav,
I commented the code as you suggested, but still its not working. It asks for the password to just read the file.
Please help me on this.

Password Protect Report Exports and Email

Hi there
My client's requirement is to automatically run, export and email reports with the report output (excel/word/etc) having password protection. Think this is possible with BI publisher, but wondering if there is any nifty way of doing this with Discoverer. For example now Discoverer is integrated with BI Publisher does this mean it's possible by creating report in Disco (potentially) then using BI Pub to automatically run, export and email results with pwd protection? Any other ideas??
This is an eBusiness Suite environment, Disco version 10.1.2, eBusiness Suite version 11.5.10 (they also have 11.5.8, but we don't believe we'll be doing this solution on tha environment).
Cheers, Kate

Hi,
I don't think there is any easy solution to this, but what we do at this site is schedule the Discoverer reports to run using the eBusiness Suite Concurrent Manager. We use dedicated Discoverer workstations to run the Discoverer exports and these could also be used to email the report if this was a requirement.
There is an article on my website (www.cabotconsulting.co.uk) about scheduling Discoverer reports using the Applications 11i concurrent manager and you can also search this forum for scheduling and email for information on how to email reports.
Hope that helps,
Rod West

How to create PDF from Excel with Password Protection Using Visual Studio & Visual Basic

Could someone provide some VB code sample(s) to create a PDF file with password protection (Security Method - Password Security - Restrict Editing & Printing)?
I create a bunch of reports every week using an Excel 2010 addin that subsequently must be printed to PDF. I then have to manually edit the properties of each document in order to apply the printing restriction.
I'm using Acrobat X.
I've downloaded the SDK but have no idea which dll's to use or where to begin.
Thanks!
Ross

That's surprising & disappointing. I would have thought that this capability would have long since been requested.
Thanks for the heads up.

Power Pivot enable Excel workbook protection with password?

Hi All
We have a power pivot deployment without SharePoint in excel 2013 professional plus. All woks fine until we use a password to protect excel workbook so unauthorised users cannot open it. After enabling password protection we cannot access the power pivot
data model under power pivot excel tab. It tries to upgrade the power pivot model(which is not logical because it didn't do it before and was working fine). thereafter upgrade fails.
Has anyone successfully password protected a power pivot excel 2013 workbook? Is there a workaround to enabling security without SharePoint/office 365 etc?
Thanks
Sonny

Hi Sonny,
PowerPivot does not support row security or dynamic security. Security for a workbook is just a binary choice – either a user can read a workbook or she can’t.
In this case, I would suggest you consider designing Tabular model which can be secured using row security and dynamic security is also supported. For more information, please see:
Comparing Tabular and Multidimensional Solutions (SSAS):

HT3345 How do I open a password protected excel file created on a PC? I get a message that the "file is encrypted and can't be opened"

How do I open a password protected excel file created on a PC in numbers 09, on a MacBook Air? I get a message that the "file is encrypted and can't be opened"

This is actually not true; I support users who are doing this w/ Excel 2011 (v14.2.2+) for Mac and Windows users w/ Excel 2003 & 2007. Win users are from finance dept, and who have pasword-protected various budget files. The Mac users are (surprise) "creative" users, who enter pw to unlock and edit these budget files.
These files are shared from a Mac server (running 10.6.8 server), and I do have an erratic problem where all users have read-only access to these pw-protected Excel files. The manual work-around has been to copy the troublesome file(s) and confirm users have full access again. I also do a shuffling of filenames, so that the new, working file has original file name.
FYI: the Mac server POSIX and ACL permissions are correct, and don't appear to be source of the problem.
It's easy an SMB file-locking issue or concurrent users trying to edit these files. I keep reminding them that Excel is not a database!

How to get the password of a password protected Excel Sheet using java/jxl

Hi ,
how to get the password of a password protected Excel Sheet using java / jxl program.
plz any one help me .

If they've implemented the password system correctly there probably isn't a way of getting the password at all.

Excel Sheet (password protected) is not opening

An important Excel document that is password protected keeps causing Excel to shut down after I enter the password. I tried opening with NEO OFFICE but since it's password protected, NEO won't open it. How do I turn off the password in Excel so NEO can open it? I assume thew file has become corrupt.

since Office is not an Apple product. You'll get better response if you use a forum dedicated to Microsoft's Mac products such as <http://groups-beta.google.com/group/microsoft.public.mac.office> rather than an Apple forum that focuses on Mac/Windows compatibility.
Be sure to search the forum first in case someone has already had a similar question answered. You'll get your answer faster this way. Post your question in the forum if you don't find anything that helps you.

Password-protected Excel file

I am trying to create a connection to a password-protected Excel 2003 file.
When I go to Create New Connection/Access/Excel(DAO)/make New Connection - I enter the filename path, choose Excel 8.0 from drop-down, and click the box for Secure Logon, and I enter the database password in the first box that un-greys and then leave the other 3 blank.
I get the following error message : "Logon Failed. Details DAO Error Code: 0xc59 Source: DAO Workspace Description: Could not decrypt file"
Any help appreciated.
Thanks.

You can use the Excel 8.0 Native Driver for Excel 97-2003 (.xls file extension) or use ODBC driver as well but the the only thing is you need to open the Excel workbook before connecting to Crystal Reports.
Thanks,
