How to prevent access to hidden cells?

J

Jerome

As you may know, it is very easy to view contents of
hidden cells of a hidden worksheet of a structure
protected workbook.

You just need to enter a formula in any cell, referring to
the hidden cell.
for ex, to see content of hidden cell A1 of hidden sheet1,
just enter formula in a cell "=sheet1!A1" to get the
content!

Is there a way to block this easy workaround?
NB : I am referring to protected cells in an opened
workbook.
