SHIV I cannot reply to your posting but this is what you need to do:-
To lock all the cells in a Worksheet in EXCEL 2007 take the following action:-
1. Hit Ctrl-1 to launch Format Cells.
2. Protection tab.
3. Remove the green tick from the box called:-
Locked
- then hit OK.
4. Highlight all the cells in your Worksheet by clicking in the box to the
left of A and above 1 in the top left hand corner.
This should cause your Worksheet to become highlighted.
5. Ctrl-1 to launch Format Cells once more.
6. Protection tab.
7. Place a green tick from the box called:-
Locked
- then hit OK.
8. Home / Cells group / Format / Protect Sheet / place a password in the box
called:-
Password to unprotect sheet
(I have used password called test).
At this point there are 3 cells on this window that should have a green tick
in them. They are:-
Protect worksheet and contents of locked cells
Select locked cells
Select unlocked cells
After you have entered your password hit OK and then put the password in
again in the box called:-
Reenter password to proceed.
- and then hit OK.
Save the file at this point if required.
9. Close and re-open the file.
Now try to amend any of the cells in the Worksheet and you will not be able
to.
Please hit Yes if my comments have helped.
Thanks!
