Default Stop Changes

Hi.

Thanks Sandy

If I could add a password to protect the sheet that would be great. The
particular folks I want to lock out won't look at the code. I doubt it at
least.

How do I set a password for the sheet? In the past, when I have set one you
still didn't need the password to change a cell. All you had to do was click
on unprotect sheet. I must be doing something wrong? Help?

I don't really understand what you mean by that.

As your code stands all they have to do is unprotect the sheet then change
the cell. You could add a password to the sheet protection but then all
they would have to do is look at the code to get the password.

There is nothingin Excel that you can do that a determined person cannot
undo.

Hi.

Thanks to Sandy and Gord

It works!

Next issue: if somebody wants to change a cell all they have to do is
click
on unprotect worksheet. Am I correct?

Is there any way to prevent this?

I see that now Sandy.

Too quick on the trigger.

Removal as you have shown is best.

where else could it be?
