Hi All,

Is There a way to disable the srcolling on a worksheet os that a user can't
scroll on a worsheet?

Thanks in Advance

Hi
One way would be to set the ScrollArea property to say A1:J30. However this
property is cannot be saved with the book and is lost once the book is
re-open. That is, you would have to set it in the Workbook_Open sub of the
ThisWOrkbook module.
Another way would be to hide any other row and columns outside of the
'scrollable' rectangle; unlock the cells of that rectangle (menu Format
Cells, tab Protection); and finally protect the sheet.

Jason,
Whilst you cannot prevent scrolling, you can set the .ScrollArea of a
worksheet, so the user cannot wander outside.
It only functions if the sheet is protected and AFAIK is not persistent; you
have to set it each time the workbook is opened.

The user may be able to scroll depending on the values of their screen
resolution and Excel zoom.
