I am using an Excel sheet to gather data from various users to import
into Access. Last year everything went well except a couple of users
either deleted or added rows, which screwed things.
Is there a way to prevent rows or columns from being added or deleted
and still allow data entry?
TIA

Bob

highlight the cells you want data imput to be allowed in, and unprotect the
cell (s) or even select the whole page and unprotect all the cells

then go back into protection and protect the sheet making sure that the
insert \ delete rows options is not ticked

Thanks Rich.
Turns out in E2K i don't have the insert delete rows option.
But have to "unlock" each cell then protect, thanks.
