Password Protect Dialog Box

G

Guest

I've set a password to protect my file from edits but allows the file to open
as "read only". Is ther any way to chagne the content of the dialog box that
comes up when you lauch the presentation to say:

filename.ppt is reserved by (blank)
Open read-only, or enter password to modify.
Password:

We'd like the prompt to read this way so presenters won't jump to
conclusions when they see the prompt for the password first! If we state that
they can open the read-only first - it would save some panic on their part!

Please let meknow if there's any way to change that dialog box!

Thanks for your help!

Sorry, but no. It would be nice if we could. The dialog really *is* a bit
forbidding.
