how can i lock columns but allow for new rows to be added?
 

Protect the worksheet (tools|Protect sheet)
and choose all the options you want to allow the users to do.

i have come across this problem when creating a spreadsheet for salespeople
to input their figures. some have more/fewer projects than others - short of
leaving a load of empty rows, how can i allow users to add rows that run
across locked columns?

thanks
