Hi Panagiotis,

Usually we add a password to Excel and PowerPoint documents that contain very, very sensitive information. It is done in industry, but certainly not for every file.

Regarding locking sheets and protecting certain information from being changed by others, that's typically not how you work in a team:) I haven't seen it done many times in practice.

Best,

Ned

Thanks that was somewhat helpful, i bet the subtleties are mostly understood in a real team scenario and the requirements of each manager. Great, i also hope you manage to answer when time is available, the  dynamic codependent dropdown list exercise called "Homework day 4" exercise question... .
