    Data Connection file..Prevent Opening of

    Hi Forum Users,

    I have a few Excel workbooks that have an external data connection to an Access file which
    has some sensitive info in it. I have created this ok to prevent prying eyes form seeing the info in the excel workbook and access,
    but the connection file which is located in another folder creates a frightning issue that is if you open the connection file
    (simply double click or open) it opens the data in another workbook for all to see.....

    How do I prevent anybody from opening the connection file without restricting the Proper workbook from using the connection file.

    Any help greatly appreciated.
