I dont think the same thing is available in Excel. Short of making an opening & closing macro to change the Font colour to White, is there another way to stop prying eyes from reading its contents? This file sits on an open Desktop, with an Icon to allow opening. Please Dont mention Winzip, as sometimes PC illeriate staff have to find, open & use the file. Thanks.....John. |
