Is there a way to protect a range in a worksheet, without protecting the
entire range?

Thanks for your help

Default How to protect a range

Hi Jeff,

by default all cells are locked, what you could do it selecte entire ws,
FORMAT | CELL | PROTECTION | uncheck LOCKED

Than select just the range that you are thinking to protect and locked the
cells, protect the ws

Default How to protect a range

Hello,

If I protect a range of cell, people won't be able to insert any rows within
the range. I would like to know if there is a way to allow people to insert
row when cells are protected.

Thanks!

If you're using xl2002 or higher, you can protect the sheet and still allow the
user to insert rows.
