Is there a way to hide columns based on the password entered? I am trying to go from a Paradox table to Excel and in Paradox there was the capability to hide data based on user permissions. It is really just a flat file and no need for database unless I can't accomplish what I need in Excel. When a partner opens the file he needs to see all the data. When a regular user opens the file, two columns must not be displayed. Is there a way to do this in Excel? Thanks so much for any help you can offer.
