I need to share an excel file with board members via Google Docs, but I do not want them to be able to edit it. I do need them to be able to copy information like addresses and make mailing labels from the document, but not delete or change the information. How do I do this?

Worksheet level protection is not intended as a security feature. It simply prevents users from modifying locked cells within the worksheet.
Protecting a worksheet is not the same as protecting an Excel file or a workbook with a password. See below for more information:
To lock your file so that other users can’t open it, see Protect an Excel file.
To prevent users from adding, modifying, moving, copying, or hiding/unhiding sheets within a workbook, see Protect a workbook.
To know the difference between protecting your Excel file, workbook, or a worksheet see Protection and security in Excel.
I would be happy to know if I could help.
