Preventing Exporting to Excel on a sheet

Hello,

I am wondering if it is possible to prevent exporting data to excel on one sheet or one object without preventing it on the entire document.  I have some sensitive data on one sheet that I don't want users to export, but on the other sheets I want to allow the users to export to excel.

Can you uncheck the 'send to excel' box under caption tab of that chart?

i dont get it, if it's sensitive, and you are displaying, they can still do a screen shot?

Disable the caption, the user can still right-click and send to excel i think.

Perhaps, you can go to Sheet Properties > Security > check the box for Read Only.

But still.. doesnt make sense...

I did uncheck the box on the caption box, but you can still right click and send to excel is still an option.

If I unselect Export to Excel in document properties it applies to all sheets in the document even if my other sheets have the send to excel box checked in the caption.

I tried the read only option and it still allows you to right click and send to excel.
