Insert/ Delete rows of a protected worksheet.
If you're using xl2002+, there's an option to allow the user to insert rows on
that tools|protection|protect sheet dialog. (I think all the cells in that row will have to be unlocked, too.) If you're using xl2k or below, maybe you could provide a macro that would unprotect the sheet, do the insert and then reprotect the sheet. quest4rachit wrote: Hi All, In my requirement I have to lock top 5 rows of the worksheet and the Cloumns starting from AA to the last column, so that rest of the cells remains editable to me.

Insert/ Delete rows of a protected worksheet.
Hi Dave,
Your quick response is much appreciated. I am using Excel 2003. I must admit that all the cells in a rows are not locked. First few are unlocked and the rest are locked. its a mixture of both. Is there any solution on this? "Dave Peterson" wrote: If you're using xl2002+, there's an option to allow the user to insert rows on that tools|protection|protect sheet dialog.

Insert/ Delete rows of a protected worksheet.
Just the suggestions that I gave before--unlock all the cells or use a macro.
