Can't link a table to excel within a Filling in Form protected doc
Got a document form that has a table that is a link to a Excel spreadsheet so that users can have the luxury of Excel's summing, I need to make the document protected with the Filling in Forms option, but that means the Excel link is not going to work, as it becomes a protected field. Is there a workaround for this, please.

Auto-format in Microsoft Excel.
Each time i try to enter a number range, for example, 8- 10, in Excel, it constantly re-formats it to a date. If I change the formatting to "General" it turns it into a random number, usually 38209. I would like to turn off ALL auto-formatting, but that's probably asking too much. How do I disable this frustrating feature? thanks.

A date is a number and in your example the number 38209 represents August 10 2004 which is not a ra...
