Linking to a Password Protected Document in Excel 2000
I have a document that is password protected. I also have a file that references the protected files for many of the its formulas. Each time I open the file and update the links I am prompted multiple times (once for each cell reference to the protected file) for the password. Is there any setting so that a user is only prompted once for the password to a reference file that is protected? I know that one option is just to copy the tabs from my referencing file into the protected file, but it would be nice to keep the documents separate. Thanks, Andrew

One option might be to disable the prompt for the links. Go to Tools\Options and click on the Edit tab. Deselect the "Ask to update automatic links" checkbox.

Chad9044Another option is to open all those password protected workbooks, then open the "real" workbook. saved from a previous post: Maybe you could create a macro that would open all those workbooks first. Your macro would supply both the workbook's name and password. Then after all these workbooks are open, you could open the file that contains the links. Kind of like: option explict sub auto_open() dim wkbk1 as workbook dim wkbk2 as workbook dim wkbk3 as workbook set wkbk1 = workbooks.open(filename:="c:\a.xls",password:="one") set wkbk2 = workbooks.open(filename:="c:\b.xls",password:="two") set wkbk3 = workbooks.open(filename:="c:\c.xls",password:="three") 'wkbk3 is the real one! wkbk1.close savechanges:=false wkbk2.close savechanges:=false 'thisworkbook.close savechanges:=false end sub (I'd create a 4th workbook that opens the files in order and just closes the first 2 and then itself.)

Excel 2007 painfully slow to open files
Having upgraded to Office 2007 (XP Pro, 1 Gb RAM Pentium 4 2.4GHz) I am finding Excel to be painfully slow even when opening small (50k) files by double clicking either the file or a shortcut. If I have Excel open and go through the ribbon menu to open the file from within Excel it opens immediately - it is only slow when opening a file via shortcut or double clicking the file with Excel closed.

Foreign fonts (special characters) not shown in word/excel

Excel temp files in network dir
I have users that are accessing a network shares to their excel files. I often see files that are 8 characters long Ex(D8710B20) and without extensions, left over in their dir.
