You will fetch the password from the list in which you have saved it.

The various Protect Workbook options are as follows:

1. Mark as Final: This option is used to make the document read-only. When a spreadsheet is marked as final, various options such as typing, editing commands, and proofing marks are disabled or turned off and the spreadsheet becomes read-only. This command helps a user to communicate that he is sharing a completed version of a spreadsheet. This command also prevents reviewers or readers from making inadvertent modifications to the spreadsheet. 2. Encrypt with Password: When a user selects the Encrypt with Password option, the Encrypt Document dialog box appears. In the Password box, it is required to specify a password. Microsoft is not able to retrieve lost or forgotten passwords, so it is necessary for a user to keep a list of passwords and corresponding file names in a safe place.

3. Protect Current Sheet: This option is used to select password protection and permit or prohibitother users to select, format, insert, delete, sort, or edit areas of the spreadsheet. This option protects the worksheet and locked cells.

4. Protect Workbook Structure: This option is used to select password protection and selectoptions to prevent users from changing, moving, and deleting important data. This feature enables a user to protect the structure of the worksheet.

5. Restrict Permission by People: This option works on the basis of Window Rights Managementto restrict permissions. A user is required to use a Windows Live ID or a Microsoft Windows account to restrict permissions. These permissions can be applied via a template that is used by the organization in which the user is working. These permissions can also be added by clicking Restrict Access.

6. Add a Digital Signature: This option is used to add a visible or invisible digital signature. Itauthenticates digital information such as documents, e-mail messages, and macros by using computer cryptography.

Question 8

Reference / correct answer:

He will create a PivotTable report.

A PivotTable report is used to summarize large amounts of data, to analyze numerical data, and to answer unexpected questions about data.

Incorrect Answers:

A: The accounting template is used for numbering months of a financial year to period numbering.

It is used to compare month to month, actual v budget, quarter to quarter, year to year variances.

It is the initial point for other reports that need the use of months.

B: Stand-alone slicers are referenced from Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) Cube functions. These stand-alone slicers can be connected with any PivotTable in future. They can be added by using the slicer button on the Ribbon. They need to be manually linked into grids as required. D: A form control is an original control that is compatible with old versions of Excel, beginning with Excel version 5. 0. It is designed for use on XLM macro sheets. It can be used when a user wants to simply interact with cell data without using VBA code and when he wants to add controls to chart sheets. By using form controls, the user can run macros. He can attach an existing macro to a control, or write or record a new macro. These controls cannot be added to UserForms, used to control events, or modified to run Web scripts on Web pages.
