Default prevent copying of cells

I have created a database which I want to widely distribute, I however want
to prevent any changes to it and importantly to prevent anyone being able to
copy cells into another workbook. I can lock the sheet, create a password to
prevent it being opened or modified (apart from inserting new cells), but
cannot seem to prevent a simple ctrl+c being able to copy the cells and then
paste them somewhere else...can you please please help? I'd be very grateful
Thank you
