I have a couple of files in a master directory that I import by reference into all of the manuals I work with. These files (appendix A & B) should NEVER change but I occasionally import formats by mistake when I have them included in a book. When I do that, I create problems for myself and end up having trouble with quality control. 

What I want to do is LOCK these files so I cannot accidently change them. 

I thought I've doen this before but I can't remember how. Can anyone help?
