If you look at excel's help and search for startup switches, you'll see that you
can add /r (slash r) to your target to open a specific workbook readonly. I used this: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\EXCEL.EXE" /r "C:\my documents\excel\book1.xls" (all one line) And it worked fine. Your path to excel.exe and the to the workbook may be different. Mark wrote: can i create a shortcut to open a spreadsheet read only? With a tag or such, in the shortcut? -- Dave Peterson |
