Hello,

I have a spreadsheet that contains a calculator tool.

I would like other users to be able to open the spreadsheet and enter values into some unprotected cells that perform a calculation. I do not want the other users to be able to save the spreadsheet. I do not want other users to be able to download the spreadsheet. I do not want other users to be able to email the spreadsheet.

I don't want to use VBA because some users cant open a .xlsm file due to company security. I don't have admin rights in Teams or SharePoint.

I'm hoping for a simple solution if its possible.

Thank you in advance.

How to change case of text in Excel?
Use =UPPER() for upper case, =LOWER() for lower case, and =PROPER() for proper case. PROPER won't capitalize second c in Mccartney
AFAIK there is no-way to prevent someone from distributing a workbook (even with VBA).
