Read the "Hotfix information" section near the bottom, I believe
it answers your question...

Been going in circles thru Microsoft KB articles. Finally found the
hotfix that will address this problem:

. If you lock cells in an Excel 2002 workbook by using a
Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) macro, and then
save and close the workbook, you can click to select a locked
cell after you reopen the workbook.

I've been living with this slightly irritating problem for a while,
have an auto_open macro when it's important, but I figured I'd apply
the hotfix to see if it helps.

Only problem is that I can't find it to download. Any idea where to
look?
TIA,
Andy
