Default How do I allow users to fill down on a protected sheet?

I'm trying to set up a workbook on our network for users to enterdata on,
however the sheet needs to be protected. Even if I turn all of the
"priviledges" on (give them to the users) in the protection choices, I can't
get it to fill down, which will be very important for our users to be able to
do.

Am I missing something?

Hi,
you can protect you workbook and have the cells where the users enter data
unprotected
Highlight the cell where the data will be entered and then right click in
the mouse, format cells, Protection , uncheck locked. then protect your
workbook
other option will be to set up a password for users to enter to be able to
open the sheet
