Select the column, right-click, Format Cells, Protection, Lock the cells.
Then you also have to turn on Protect Sheet. The exact steps vary slightly
by version of Excel, but you can probably figure it out.

Hi,
I have columns in my spreadsheet that have formulas, and as many people
will
be entering information into the spreadsheet, i want to lock the columns
with
formulas. Is there a way to lock only certain columns?
