Hi,

Is there a way to protect a formula from being deleted in a cell if a person
deletes the contents (value)??

Cheers!!

Hi Gav,

To do this, set the cell's protection to 'locked' and activate the
worksheet's protection.

Cheers
Note that it is not possible to delete a formula's result without deleting
the formula.
