I have used a combination of locking certain cells and then protecting
worksheet in order to prevent accidentally overwriting cells with formulae in
them. This works fine for what I want but occasionally I need to change a
formula so have to unprotect the sheet. Again, no problem but what I am
looking for is a reminder to reprotect the worksheet after I have amended the
formulae I need to change. I guess there is a macro or something I could
write but please bear with me since I am unfamiliar with writing macros.
Also, is it possible for this to be aplied to all sheets in the workbook?
