right click on the sheet tab and select view code.

Paste in code like this:

Private Sub Worksheet_Calculate()
If Range("B1").Value 7 Then
If ActiveSheet.ProtectContents = False Then
Me.Cells.Locked = True
Me.Protect
End If
End If
End Sub

Hi Tom

It will be a formula based on =(NOW())-A1, so if the user tries to work
on
the form after 7 days, they wouldn't be allowed to. A1 will change based
on
external data every week

How does B1 get to be 7. Manual entry? Formula? Macro?

I want to protect all cells in a workbook if the Contents of cell B1

7.
My
thinking is that if the value of Cell B1 7 then the worksheet
should
not
be worked on, kind of a security feature

Is there any such code I should use?

Thanks
