how do i prohibit user's from accessing formulas (lock the formula
 
select the cells containing formulas, then format - cells - protection - lock.
make sure the cells you want the user to key in are not locked - same
process, just uncheck "lock".

then, when you are finished, go to Tools, click Protection, and specify the
protection you want.
