Attributes

Ernie

I would like to setup my Office 2000 Professional that
when I make a document it does not put any attribute on
it. i.e. Read only etc.
Your help would be appreciated
Thanks
Ernie

I'm assuming you dont want other people to amend the docs? that being the
case I believe you would need to use the NTFS file/folder permissions with
regard to a specific logon

Attributes are put by windows OS not by Office application packages.
Therefore, any file you create in Office Applications such as word or
excel, it should have at least one attribute normally "a". This has
always been the case since the bad old days of DOS. Attributes help in
makng incremental backups so that all files changed since last backup
are backed up again.

Files don't get Read Only attributes automatically. There are ways to
prompt users to open files as Read-Only; For eample Tools, Options,
Security, select Read-Only Recmmended. I am sure you know how to make a
file Read-Only using Explorer.
