Hi All,

Excel file  created in Excel 2010 opens correctly along with edit option where the owner has created it in protect mode available in excel.

 

But when we try to open the same in office 2013 it opens where the protected mode enable, if we click view it gives formulas  instead of just  enabling user to edit the protected cell.

Please help..

Hi,

Thanks for your question.

Does this only happen to some specific files or all? When you say "protect mode", do you mean the "Protected View"?

We can not fully understand your query based on your current description. Please elaborate a little bit on your case, or provide a sample file, so that it will be easy for us help you.

You can send the sample file to this email account: ibsofc@microsoft.com and inform us here (the email subject should be the link of this thread).
