Can I lock data into few cells in sheet and clear the rest
 

Using Office 2003, Excel Workbook. I want to enter data into certain cells,
lock them, enter data into the remainder of the sheet and later do a global
"clear contents" which will clear everything EXCEPT the data in the locked
cells. Is this possible?

Something like:

Option Explicit
Sub testme01()

Dim myCell As Range
Dim myRng As Range

Set myRng = Worksheets("sheet1").UsedRange

For Each myCell In myRng.Cells
If myCell.Locked Then
'skip it
Else
myCell.ClearContents
End If
Next myCell

End Sub
