Hi all,

I am writing some instructions to my users for them to choose one of the higher encryption types when password protecting Excel documents and then I've just thought - surely there is a way to force excel to use higher encyrption by default (thus removing the need for the user to remember to change (which we all know they won't).

I've tried creating a template and setting it there in XLSTART but the changes aren't brought through to the new book1.xls

Does anyone know if its possible please?

Thanks
John
