Hi

Select "Hidden" in addition to "Locked" when you protect your cells. Then
Paste will paste the values instead of the underlying formulas.

You can also fill the clipboard with nonsense using macros and events, if
you can ensure that macros are enabled.

HTH. Best wishes Harald

Hi Lisacomop. As a favor to the rest of us, please lose the caps. It's
shouting in these posts.
