Question: When I open the Excel file I am unable to edit the document. Microsoft Excel indicates Protected View and that editing this file type is not allowed.
Answer:  The more recent versions of Excel have a security feature called protected view. Protected View is a read-only mode where most editing functions are disabled. By Default older Excel formats open in Protected View. The Excel format that Worksheet creates is an older Excel 2 Worksheet file. The below steps can be performed to disable protected view for this type of document.
