well, am actually working with c# and developing an excel addin. I need to
make some excel cells, having some text, read-only and the rest of the sheet
is free to any modifications by the user.

Regards.

*how to make the content in an excel cell read only?!* Firstly you have to make sure the cells attributes are locked (right
click, format cells, protection) they are locked by default, then
protect the sheet, the cell can then only be read not edited. To be
honest you need to explain more what you want to do!
