protect file from getting deleted

[nandkumar nair]

I have made a file in Excel 97. I want to protect it in
such a way that nobody should be able to delete it.
Nobody should also be able to save another file on it.

Can anyone help please

There is no way that you can with 100% certaintly prevent
a file from being deleted or overwritten. This is why the
first three rules of computing are backup, backup and
backup. When you are done working on a file, copy it from
your hard drive to what ever else you may have access to.
IE,a second hard drive, server drive, floppy, CDR, zip
disk, USB Key drive. If you don't have access to any of
these, then at least create a backup directory.
