Default Locking A Sheet Using Words & Numbers

Before I got Office 2007 I was able to lock a spreadsheet using a word
combined with numbers, i.e., locksheet123. Now I can't lock it using that
formula I can only lock it using words, i.e., locksheet. If I try to put in
the full words & numbers it allows me to do it in the first window, but when
it asks for verification, in the second window, it tells me there's an error
and I can't do it.

Thanks, Mumsy

This is a silly guess...

I'm gonna guess that you made a typo -- either in the letters or numbers -- or
even hit caps lock.

I'd try it again if I were you.

Dave, thanks for the input, but I tried that several times. There were no
typos. and, I've tried it on different occasions.

I don't have another guess.

Sorry.
