Empty password

I just submitted an issue which has to do with protecting worksheets. If I protect with an empty password (empty string = ""), then when I open it in Excel, I am unable to unprotect the worksheet - Excel tells me the password is incorrect. If I use a blank " ",then it works. Anyone see that?

Hi Jeff, This seems to be a shortcoming of XlsIO. I have reported this issue to the development team and it should get fixed shortly http://www.syncfusion.com/support/issues/xlsio/Default.aspx?ToDo=view&questId=1827 Thanks, Stephen. >I just submitted an issue which has to do with protecting worksheets.
