Is word 97 file browser bar lockable?

[AlmostBob]

Hello all, I am in a dilemma,
I live with 2 teenage boys, both of whom are studying the same course at
middle school, they save their work in their own default mydocuments folders
that were created when their users were made. But they can browse in word to
the other's folder. The elder now has the habit of inserting words and
pictures in the younger's homework. is there any way in word to lock the
browser window to root at \windows\profiles\danny\my documents for danny and
of course david's for david so they cant browse above it to change the other's
homework.

Hi AlmostBob,

Office doesn't have any ability to 'hide' folders. You'd need to do that in Windows. Depending on your Windows version it may be
something you can do internally or it may need a 3rd party privacy application if you're leaving it to the computer to be the
solution

Hi, Bob,

Unfortunately, there's no permissions/file protection provided with Windows
98. As a stopgap measure, you could encourage younger child to
password-protect the document, but make sure he remembers the password.

 

[AlmostBob]

Thankyou , Dannnnnyyyyyyyyy cmere kid
