Highlight the cells you want to protect, right click the mouse button and
choose Format/Protection. Your options are there.

From the main menu*, you then have the option of protecting the whole
workbook or worksheet. That enables the protection you put on in the format
command

In OL2007 it is Review/ and your options are on the ribbon bar.
