What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
Better question. when my coworkers attempt to save the spreadsheet can I have a message box popup asking for the name they want it saved as. I need this to happen only the first time saved.

Can you set the file as read-only? That would prevent any changes to it, and prompt for a SaveAs filename when they try to save it.
