Hi Fellow myonlinetraininghub.com,

I have a problem, i am going to sell my excel files to others, how do i protect the excel files? (i already know the password solution)
but the thing is, i want to secure it every files depends on the user. So if someone distribute it illegally, i will know who did this, based on password input or a watermark on the excel based on their name.. the other problem is if the users are hundreds..

Hope you understand my problem..

Hi Luhur,

If you want enhanced security, you can try to convert your excel files to executables, using LockXLS or any other conversion tools, there is one free, xltoexe.
