This setting will not remain after closing the file.
Place a code line in the Workbook open event to set it
each time when you open the workbook

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Sheets("Sheet1").ScrollArea = "B1:B45"
End Sub

In the VB editor, I am typing B1:B45 in the ScrollArea
property to restrict users to that area. After saving,
closing, and reopining, the typed B1:B45 is not there, and
users can still click outside the desired area. Worksheet
is not protected.

Can someone tell me the problem?

Thanks, Phil
