Default How do I prevent data i a cell from being copied?

I don't think you will find a way to do this.

You can lock the cells and protect the sheet with no selection of locked or
unlocked cells cells so users cannot select to copy but.....................

User can enter =Sheet1A1 on another sheet and get the contents.

changed in a worksheet, but I do not find a way to prevent the data to be
copied to another worksheet.
