Hi Keith

the only method is to protect the worksheet ... basically you have to unlock
the cells you want people to get to (select them and choose format / cell /
protection tab and untick locked)
then you have to protect the worksheet
tools /protection / protect sheet
- use a password if you want to stop people from unprotecting the sheet
themselves - however, do be aware that it takes one website and about 2 mins
to break the passwords on worksheet & workbook protection.

I have a formula in a cell which is copied to several other cells for
future calculations. How do I prevent the formulas in those cells from
being erased? I am preparing this for others to use.
Thanks in advance.
