2.Open the Security Settings: Click the "Review" tab of the ribbon in the window that opens, then click "Protect Spreadsheet"

 

3.Set a password to open the Spreadsheet: Check "Require a password to open the document" and enter a password in the specified fields

4.Set a password to edit the Spreadsheet: Check "Require a password to edit content" and enter a password in the specified fields (this does can be a separate password than the one for opening the spreadsheet)

5.Set any exclusions: Check the box for each activity that can be done without entering the password required to edit content. Options include inserting and deleting columns and rows; and more.

 

6.Save the Template: Click OK to close the window, then click the "Home" of the ribbon and select "Save and Close" to close the template
