TM->FT: Please have a look, thanks ! There is an option to protect the document from changes when using the function Edit|Changes|protect changes You are then promted to enter a password. Other users may change the document, the changes are logged but can be just turned off (eg not displayed as such). For the creator it is easy to accept or reject these changes (after unprotecting the doument using the password) This doesn't 'protect' the document as eg creating a pdf would, but when you need protection in this context, why not just create a pdf and distribute the pdf instead of the sxw? The user might copy&paste a protected file into a new one and the change the contents, so I don't really see a need for a protection that doesn't allow any changes (but I'm not a developer, just an user) We need more differientiated protection of documents. This should be part of the issue Group Working/Collaboration . To grep the issues easier via "requirements" I put the issues currently lying on my owner to the owner "requirements". |
