Lock location of sheet within a spreadsheet
Sounds like a good workaround. Thanks for the tip.
-- Thanks, PJ "Jim Thomlinson" wrote: There is no way to lock the position of a sheet that I know of. Generally when I want to use a formula such as that I will create 2 blank worksheets. One called Start and one called end. I place them at either end of my source sheets. I then use formulas like =SUM('Start:End'!C3) Not fool proof but it helps keep end users from moving the end sheets... -- HTH...

Then I have a Total sheet that totals across all the sheets. For example, the Total sheet adds cell C3 on Sheet 1 plus C3 on Sheet 2 plus C3 on Sheet 3, etc. I want to lock Sheet 1 so it can't be moved because the formula will not work if the sheets are rearranged. See formula below. =SUM('Sheet1:Sheet10'!C3) -- Thanks, PJ |
