Default How 2 lock row and column delete/add but allow data entry?

HOW DO I LOCK ONE COLUMN (NOT TO SCROLL) WHILE THE OTHERS ON THE SPREADSHEET
CONTINUE TO SCROLL

CTRL + a(twice in 2003) to select all cells.

FormatCellsProtection. Uncheck "locked" and OK

ToolsProtectionProtect Sheet.

Note the checkbox options to allow or disallow features.

Provide a password if required but be aware that this type of password is easily
cracked but will keep casual users from inserting columns.
