Description
Please describe the problem: This issue was originally reported on Ubuntu Launchpad as: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnumeric/+bug/311212
Gnumeric can open a password protected Excel workbook after requesting the password from the user. However, if the spreadsheet is subsequently saved, password protection is lost with no warning given.
Tested version 1.8.3-3ubuntu2 with file format Excel 97/2000/XP Xubuntu 8.10 Intrepid
Steps to reproduce:
- Open an Excel workbook that was saved with a password
- Save that workbook
Actual results: Gnumeric does not ask for a password to protect the file when saving; further, it does not save with the original password.
Expected results:
Does this happen every time?
