Lock/secure(not just hide) sheet for all users except admin

Sat, 24 May 2014 12:59:57 GMT

Hi,

I want to hide/lock a sheet for all users except admin. I have seen some solutions where a sheet is conditionally hidden based on the user. However, the problem with those methods is that a user can show/unhide them using the desktop version and pressing ctrl+shift+s

I want to permanantly lock the sheet for all users except my own user. Is it possible and if yes, then how

Regards

Arif

Hi, the way you have to show or hide sheet is changing the property from the sheet using variables, i think is the way you are doing.

but one question, yours users will always enter using the desktop version? or you will use the web and the acces point?

is supouse that your user that use the desktop know the technique to change the document security?

Good luck

Basically, I am giving the document to another user who will be working on a sheet. He will be using desktop version and making changes to few dashboards on a sheet.

I want to lock all other sheets either using section access or some other security so that even if he knows how to change document security, he cannot change the settings
