Default Prevent Copying Data

Have you tried using cell locking and protection to stop users from
destroying your conditional formatting, this would still allow then the
convenience of being able to paste data into the cells. There's a short
tutorial in the Excel section on my website that might help.

Is there a way to prevent users from copying data within a worksheet
while still leaving cells open for entry. My problem is they are
copying data into cells that when the data is pasted, it wipes out the
conditional formatting. Any ideas?
