How to protect excel spreadsheet with password from asp.net

I am trying to create an excel spreadsheet from my asp.net 2.0(vb.net) code.
I can create the file and even protect it, but I cannot protect it with a
password. Here's my code:

Dim xl As New Spreadsheet
xl.ActiveSheet. Protect("testpa ssword")

Thanks for your help.

Hello all, My code can successfully open, write to, format and save several worksheets in a workbook then save it by a given name, close and quit excel. My problem is that if I try and do it again, Excel hangs. OR if I open Excel again (say from a desktop icon) before I close Access, Excel hangs. (this has happened for both 97 & 2000 for me) I of course thought that I mustn't be unloading a variable properly.

I wrote a simple VB.NET application that imports and edits CSV files. Now I’d like to “lock” the raw (pre-import) CSV files so these cannot be opened separately. It is not high-sensitive data, I just don’t want folks to peek in the files. So time-consuming encryption is not necessary, just a simple password-to-open that I can program in my application so it internally opens the imported CSV file would be perfect, but I can’t...

Hi All, I have finally succeeded in exporting to a preformated excel spreadsheet. I have one tiny setback. One of the sheets I am exporting to must be password protected. When I do this and export I am prompted for the password. This defeats the point.
