    Question Scheduling Excel Protection

    Hi all,

    I was just wondering, if this is possible in Excel 2007 or any version.

    I want to password protect my excel file however the protection should be activated only after a certain number of days or weeks. Is this possible even if we make copies of it?

    Would be glad hear from you guys soon as this is pretty urgent.

    Thank you all.

    Hi and welcome to the forum

    Not sure what your intentions are here, but you need to be aware that excel security is not the best. People that know what they are doing, can probably remove any security in a very short period of time
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    The people I am dealing with are not experts I guess. So it would be helpful to some extent. Then can we make it not work after a certain period of time?
