Default formula to lock cell?

Gord,

I have a formula in Column O7:O37. I need cells B7:N37 to lock when the
value from the formula exceeds a certain threshold.

Thanks for the help,
Mike

As Peo mentioned..........Formulas cannot lock cells.

DV can't lock cells.

Conditional formatting can't lock cells.

You would be best use VBA event code.

If you describe what you need locking and when, someone could supply some code.

Can you use a validation formula to lock a cell? If so could you give me an
example of how to write it?

Thanks in advance,
