ExcelExciting Thank you for sharing and providing the screen shot along with the steps to configure the permissions. I was hoping that I could set the permissions solely by using the 'Allow' and 'Deny' rules without applying the passwords. Entering a password is not convenient and people tend to forget the password. So, I guess I'll have to find other ways. Thanks again.
