Default Protect cells but allow for user input.

I want to create a form to input data (either copy and pasted from another
workbook or simply typed in). There will be a range of cells where to enter
data (columns A:G) that will be unprotected; the rest of the worksheet will
be protected. Is there a sub routine that I could apply in the code window
that will allow the user to manipulate the input data in any way other than
deleting whole rows, whole columns, or removing cells by cutting them,
cutting rows or cutting columns. That way for columns A:G the user could
type/paste data, delete or clear contents, but not delete or cut
cells/rows/columns such that other cells would shift in the process. Any
advice would be greatly appreciated.
