if your using xl 2002 you can uncheck select lock cells in the protect
sheet option.

Is there a way of skipping to the next input cell, on a protected
worksheet, when the enter/return key is pressed ?

I have a protected worksheet with a number of input cells. Because of
the layout there are rows in between the input cells, so when
enter/return is pressed the cell immediately below the current one is
selected, instead, I would like to move to the next input cell at this
point.

Thanks and regards
Fred
