Default Locking Cells on Validation

That cannot be done through Data, Validation alone since it only affects the
current cell. A better design is to use a worksheet change event macro to
make the cells in A and B the opposite whenever one changes. Forget about
the locking bit; totally unnecessary.

| Hi Folks,
|
| I have a worksheet that has got 2 Columns, A and B. Both Columns have
| validation list with values YES and No, My query is that for example if
| on cell A10 if i choose Value YES from Validation drop down list then
| the cell B10 should automatically Show No and should be locked for
| protection and no changes be made to cell B10. But if i select No in
| A10 then B10 should show YEs and now A10 should be locked.
|
| I have been trying trying and trying but its not happening, Please help
| me on this.
|
| Regards,
|
