Tom Ogilvy

Protected cells
 
ActiveSheet.EnableSelection = xlUnlockedCells

this must be set each time the workbook is opened as it is not persistent.
Possibly use the workbook_open event or put it in the sheet activate event.

Then use Tom's example
In Excel 2002-2003 you have this option when you protect the sheet

Try this on a example workbook

Uncheck the locked property of all cells you want to use first
Select the cells
Ctrl-1
On the Protection tab uncheck locked
Paste this event in the thisworkbook module
and save the file and close it.

When you open the file you only can select unlocked cells
in each sheet.

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Dim Sh As Worksheet
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
For Each Sh In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
Sh.Select
Sh.Protect userinterfaceonly:=True
Sh.EnableSelection = xlUnlockedCells
Next
Sheets(1).Select
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
