Workbook/sheet protection doesn't seem to work
 
I want to make it so the chart on a chart sheet can't be selected by the
user and I thought protecting the workbook and the worksheet (structure and
windows) would do it, but it hasn't worked. ANyone know how to achieve this?

Thanks for your help, Mark

Perhaps this will solve your problem:
Option Explicit

Private Sub Workbook_SheetActivate(ByVal Sh As Object)
'Note: this macro must be stored in the Microsoft Excel Oject:
ThisWorkbook
Dim strShtName As String

strShtName = ActiveSheet.Name
If strShtName = "Chart1" Then 'Modify Sheet Name as required
Chart1SheetHide
MsgBox "You are not allowed to view Chart1"
End If
End Sub

Sub Chart1SheetHide()
'Use this to Hide the Chart1 Sheet:
Sheets("Chart1").Visible = False
Range("H31:H33").Select
End Sub

Sub Chart1SheetUnHide()
'Use this to UnHide the Chart1 Sheet:
Sheets("Chart1").Visible = True
Range("H31:H33").Select
End Sub

Hope this helps.
