I'm only guessing. Have you tried with the file highlighted, not open, and doing a right click and looking under properties and see if there is anything there to unprotect or make the file not a a read only? Just a thought.

Hello Rod

Thanks but I have tried it without the space and still no luck.


I have been working down through the file menu to options and then trusted, as recommended by John.  However, Window-eyes won't allow me to check or uncheck the boxes which seem to have something to do with my problem.


I may have to wait for sighted assistance.


Best wishes


Mike.

 Hi Mike,

 I don't work with Excel much, but I venture a guess that the space you
 read in the response was related to the fact that the person was dictating
 his response on his iPhone.
 Therefore, what I'm saying is the space should be ignored. Smile

 Hth,

 Rod

 Hello


 Unfortunately, this doesn't appear to work on my machine.  After pressing
 f6 followed by space f2 I get the same message about protected mode. 
 Many thanks though for taking the time to reply.


 Best wishes


 Mike.
