No. None of the iWork apps on any platform will open a password-protected Office file. You have to remove the password in Office first.

Share Excel File that is password protected

Hello all
I have published a workbook in our shared area at work. It's massive and also has another workbook linked to it.
Both are password protected so are only available for viewing. But tons of people need to see them particularly the source file which is no problem because they can't change anything so can choose 'read only'.
However the problem is when I need to go in there to make a couple of alteration, I have to wait until they close it or of course as is typical, they will leave their desk and forget to close it!!
I haven't used the sharing workbook option although I've tried it and shown one of our departments to use it basically.
I was wondering if this would be possible on a file that is password protected and is locked on every sheet.
That way I can just go in when I need to even if someone's in there.
This is an extremely important file that
can not go wrong. (I do have a backup)
What are your views on this option and what is the best way to go about it?
Thanks

Hi,
Would you like to tell me which Excel version are you using? According to your description, I recommend we try the two methods:
Method 1:
Excel has a feature "Protected the sheet", we can assign the different password to each sheet.
For more detail information, please refer to the following link:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/excel-help/password-protect-worksheet-or-workbook-elements-HP010078580.aspx
Method 2:
Share the Excel workbook, and assign the edit range/permission to users. We can allow specific users to edit ranges in Excel. Here is the steps:
Click 'Review', 'Allow Users to Edit Ranges','New'. In 'Title', enter the name. In 'Refers to cells', enter an equal sign (=) and enter the reference. In 'Range password', enter password. Click 'Permissions'. Click 'Add'. Enter the name. Click 'Protect Sheet',
enter password. Click 'OK'.

It's recommended to download and install
Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT), which is developed by Microsoft Support teams. Once the tool is installed, you can run it at any time to scan for hundreds of known issues in Office

SAP version 4.7 Email pdf file that is password protected.

Hi Gurus,
We have a requirement:
Email pdf file that is password protected.
Once the user receives the email, clicks on the attached pdf file,
     it should ask the password. Note that Password value should come from SAP.
What we have done is get the spool number and by using function module CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF, it converts the spool document to pdf.
On this function module, there are no parameters to make pdf as password protected and
also include the password. This is the problem.
Question:
   (a) Is there a way to make pdf password protected that will be emailed?
        What function modules, etc to be used? (sample coding if available)
   (b) Somebody mentioned the that Adobe LiveCycle Policy Server should be installed together with SAP.
        If this is installed, how then would be the abap coding be in order to make the pdf password
            protected?
        How is the new policy server gonna be linked to SAP and how do the abap coding gonna be?
           (sample abap coding if available)
Thanks.

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...

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.

Numbers can't open excel files that requires a password

How can I open an excel file that requires a password? I recently purchased the 'Numbers' program and I get an error message saying that Numbers cannot open an encrypted file. However, I can open and view the file (but not edit).
Apple needs to fix this!
Any suggestions on how to open a password protected file using Numbers?
Thanks,
Curtis

Thanks
I compared the beginning of your file to the beginning of two XL ones which are on my machine (in fact, they are files created with openOffice).
You may see that there are many differences.
They may explain the different behaviour.
If someone is able to drive Excel with an AppleScript,
he may write a script opening your document in Excel,
saving it
opening the newly saved file in Numbers.
As I don't own Excel, I ignore its required syntax so I can't write a clean script.
If the XL's syntax is the same than the Numbers one, this quick and dirty one may do the trick :
set aFile to (path to desktop as text) & "Treatment Report No Header.xls"
tell application "System Events"
set aName to name of disk item aFile
end tell
tell application "Numbers"
open file aFile
save document 1 (* maybe save document aName *)
close document 1 (* maybe close document aName *)
end tell
tell application "Numbers"
open aFile
end tell

Try double clicking your home button then force close the stuck PDF by swiping upward. Once you've done that just click the home button again to exit.

Ask Panasonic whether or not they provide OSX versions of the software.

Opening Winmail.dat files in Mail on iPad (Ms Windows Word, Excel, Ppt)

I thought I'd share my findings on what to do if your Word, Excel, Powerpoint attachments come into your Mail as winmail.dat files. In my experience I downloaded the following Apps:
Pages
Numbers
DocsToGo
WinMailViewer
Letter Opener
To open the winmail.dat file hold the icon until asked how you want to open the file: WinMailViewer or Letter Opener (assuming you've previously downloaded both Apps).
WinMailViewer is exactly what it says ... a 'viewer' of the file. The file is sent to the relevant App which you subsequently open to see a list of the files.
Letter Opener will bring up the attachment(s) in a separate window and gives you choices on which App you'd like to use to open or view the file with. Depending on what Apps you've previously downloaded:
For Excel it might list: Quick Look, DocsToGo, Csv File Editor, PDFReaderLite
For Word, it might list: Pages, DocsToGo, PDFReaderLite
DocsToGo is an excellent option for working on Word, Excel files (N.B. If you have a big Excel file with 'frozen' window panes, I recommend clicking on the 4th tool (bottom toolbar) UnFreezing the panes while you work or move around the file as I haven't figured how to work with it on!!)
Pages is the best option to use for editing Word files.
Numbers is probably the best option to use for editing Excel files.
Csv File Editor is another Excel editing option.
I hope that helps.

I should further say the files I sent are .xlsx and .docx files. They look fine my end and I send such files all the time without problems.
However, I did try to cheat by going in via the Safari onto my 'live' online email account and the Safari automatically transfers them to winmail.dat files with the same result.
Ahh - have just been on using my PC this time and you are right, it seems that the service provider does the transfer and then when my outlook opens the file (on the PC), it must reconvert to .xlsx etc again.
Very strange.
Ergo, I guess the question should be how I open wimail.dat files ??

Photoshop will not open/create new files, cannot resize images etc

Hi to all.
So I'll start with the basics; I am using Photoshop 7 (And yes, I am using it for a specific reason, I'm not interested in migrating to this new $1000 Creative Cloud rubbish), us Australians are getting ripped a new one and I'm happy with the $50 I paid for my copy years ago. (Please do not tell me the answer to my problems is to simply upgrade and go bankrupt. Again, I've been using 7 for a very long time without issue).
I've been using 7 for almost a decade without issue. I stick with it because so far, it's done everything I need, has been reliable up to this point, and my plugins do not work properly with newer versions. I'm also running an older-spec system (Windows XP, 3gb ram etc) as I do a lot of work with older game engines, Source Engine etc.
The issue I'm having doesn't appear to be Photoshop-7 specific however, there are many threads on this that have gone unanswered, and happen in CS3 etc and modern copies as well. I have uninstalled and reinstalled it to no avail. Basically, I cannot open files reliably with it.
If I right click any image file in explorer and click "open with -> Photoshop", photoshop will launch, however it does not open the file. I double checked to ensure the file was not just opening offscreen, however it is definitely not opening at all (as the "close" option does not become available).
If I launch photoshop manually, and click file -> open -> It will open that file, HOWEVER it will not open any more files after that.
It also is very very fickle with simple commands, such as if I hit CTRL + T to go into transform mode and then try to rescale an image, I have to click and drag the corners at least 5-6 times before it will recognize that I am doing so, and it will also ignore the resize that I perform and snap back to normal. Sometimes I have to click things more than once to get them to register. This is not occurring with any other piece of software etc, so I've ruled out that it's an issue with my mouse.
This has only been happening a day, and I cannot think of any particular system changes likely to result in this (ie no abnormal plugins installed recently, no major hardware or software changes). Unless my keyboard has a stuck key or something strange, I'm absolutely at a loss
Is there anyone who can help me, or has heard of this issue?

I am an idiot.
I guess the scratch disk was full or something else. A simple reboot appears to have solved the problem. (I often have my system running for up to 48-64 hours at a time without reboots) as my workdays are around 36 hours at a time, so it could just be a memory constraint from XP.
Hopefully this solves the issue for anyone else who encounters it. Reboot your pc once in a while, give it a clean slate of memory to work with.
