MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / June 2007Packaged Presentation Password Protected - On Web
PowerPoint 2003 Question/Issue: My agency has a presentation that they have asked be placed on our website. The presentation needs to be such that it cannot be modified by anyone. I have tried Saving the File as a Web Page, but the file can then be saved - via the web browser - and modified by the user. I then tried putting a password on the original file for modifications only - not for opening; I then packaged the presentation for a CD. When testing the webpage two results are encountered on various computers. On my computer, when selecting to OPEN the presentation, I am prompted to enter a password to modify the file or I can select READ ONLY. This is the desired result. However, when trying the same process on another computer, the user is prompted to enter a password in order to OPEN the file; obviously, this is not the desired result. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions on how I can accomplish this? I appreciate any input! Thank you in advance! I know you'll be prompted to Open and won't get the Read Only button if you try to open the presentation logged in as a user with a mandatory profile. This is because the newer encryption methods that various Office programs use for password protection can't be used on mandatory profiles because they need to write to the user's public key in the profile and mandatory profiles are read-only. Hope that helps. > PowerPoint 2003 Question/Issue: > [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > > Thank you in advance! > PowerPoint 2003 Question/Issue: > > My agency has a presentation that they have asked be placed on our website. > The presentation needs to be such that it cannot be modified by anyone. Does the presentation involve animation or is it fairly simple? If the later, there are ways of converting it to a series of images, not TOTALLY uneditable but for all practical purposes, darn close.
