Hi :) Ahh, i think it happens the other way too. That if you "protect" a document in LibreOffice then people opening it in MS Office will find the protection gets ignored.
Personally i find it difficult enough to get people to edit and add their ideas into documents that are open and meant to be shared and updated. I've never had any trouble dissuading people from doing something! I had a quick look through documentation https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Publications#LibreOffice_Calc_Guide but couldn't find anything. Are you sure you don't want to just share the document and then "track changes"?
