prevent changes to file properties.. is this possible
I am wondering if I can create an editable file but prevent someone from changing the file properties, such as creator. I would like to create a file for use and allow people to work on the file, but locking the file so that I can see who works on the file. I'm trying to prevent someone from going into file properties and changing the user information.
I've poked around all over and it appears this is not possible. Wondering if anyone knows if this is possible?
