Thank you Jim! I recorded macros to Protect Sheet and checked Insert Row
and Delete Row and one to unprotect. Then I added the macros to my "Insert"
and "Delete" macros. Essentially, I protect when the workbook opens.
Unprotect to insert with macro and then protect back. Same with delete.

The Delete Row macros work great, but when I protect sheet with 'insert row"
selected, I am still able to insert a row by using the Tool Bar. If I delete
a row, I get a message stating that I cannot delete a protected cell (which
is what I want).

I'm using Excel 2003. Do you have an idea why the "insert row" part is not
taking effect?

I have a list of numbers in rows. I have macros for "Insert Number" and
"Delete Number". These find the correct row and either insert or delete. I
need to control this to protect sums, formulas, etc. Is there a way for me
to prevent the user from inserting or deleting from the Tool Bar?

Thanks for the help!
