Have you tried entering a star symbol * for USERID and PASSWORD in the lines with a NTSID?

I don't think there is a big difference to using e.g. NTNAME, What is the issue you encounter?

NTNAME can be played around with or manipulated.  I need to make sure that the document can only be opened on designated machines.

Hi Swuehl

I tried the following section access table in Excel:

The NTSID is for my machine and i therefore expect the application to open without asking for authentification.  However i am asked for USERID and PASSWORD.

Hi Swuehl

Thank you very much, using a star symbol * for USERID AND PASSWORD for lines with NTSID/NTDOMAINSID worked.
