Using Excel 2010 I have an excel workbook that we send to people, it contains several backend tables that we don't want them messing with. If I save the workbook as a .XLS it protects fine. However, we have some people with only open office. the workbook works fine as a .ODS, but it will not allow me to turn on the protection. I tried saving as .ODS, then reopening and resave with protection, no go. I tried saving a protected .XLS workbook as .ODS, no go.
