The only way to do this is to protect the cells you don't want people to
alter. Use Format-Cells-protection. Then unprotect the rest of the cells
using the same dialog. Then protect the sheet. Now the user can alter only
the unprotected cells. An added advantage is that the TAB key will skip to
the next unprotected cell.
