[nabs-l] Downloading and Protected View

[Kaiti Shelton]

Hi Jewel and Katie,

I didn't know about the process Katie listed earlier, but I may have
an easier solution.  For some reason all my documents I have to open
from Sakai like to pop up in protected mode, so here's what I've been
doing.  I select all, copy, and paste everything in a new document.
It's ridiculously easy, but it works perfectly and takes seconds to
do.  As long as you just have to email or upload a file with the
answers to a web site to turn it in you shouldn't have any problems
with using a different document than the original.  Hope this helps.
