    Morning all :wave:



    mhoc what a brilliant post :T

    thank you :)

    basically if you think things are bad now, they are and it will get worse and worse and stay like that for ever but one day you will come out of the tunnel and the light will shine again, just keep plodding onwards.
    Be very focused as to what you want from life - we wanted the kids to have a far better life than us, far more experiences and opportunities - to do more and go further (not much in the way of material things though as we always burst our budgets)

    We put ourselves 2nd always and now they have all successfully flown the nest, we have got the finances back on track and its finally our time - we don't have the day to day care now of offspring or elderly parents, it is just us so its time to be kind to ourselves and hope that we have lots of healthy years left to go and have some fun :)

    Is your excel worksheet password locked?

    No its something I need to do if I can figure it out.

    I can see the "Protect sheet" on the toolbar but there are dozens of tickboxes underneath to allow users to do various alteration - do you tick all of these?

    To password protect a spreadsheet (in Excel) do the following:

    Go to 'Save As'
    Select 'Tools'
    Select 'General Options'
    a Dialogue box appears called 'Save Options'
    Put in a password to either 'Open' or 'Edit' (Modify)
