Hi,

is there a way to stop users from deleting rows? I need them to be able to
insert, change but not delete.


thx

If everyone is using xl2002+, you can set those requirements when you protect
the sheet.

If anyone is using less than xl2002, then I think you could protect the sheet,
but give the users a macro that would only do what you want. Your macro would
unprotect the sheet, do the work and reprotect the sheet.

But there are lots of things that can not be done on protected sheets.
