Locking Cells or worksheets
I have a worksheet that people can input data. I have other worksheets that
use this information to summarize the data. I do not want the summarized worksheets & data to be edited or formulas to be edited. However, I have a list of hyperlinks in the summarized worksheet that will not work when I protect the worksheet. Is there a way for the hyperlinks to work? |

as long as you allow users to select locked cells when you protect then
hyperlinks will work on a protected sheet. "Steve" wrote: I have a worksheet that people can input data. I have other worksheets that use this information to summarize the data.

Thanks, Mike. That helps for the most part. However, when I hold down the
cursor, the cell becomes active whereby I can change/delete the hyperlink. Anyway to eliminate this?

Holding down the mouse button does select the cell but if it protected it
can't be changed only followed. "Steve" wrote: Thanks, Mike. That helps for the most part. However, when I hold down the cursor, the cell becomes active whereby I can change/delete the hyperlink.

Mike,
That was great! I realized that I had the settings wrong in the password protection screen. Thanks a bunch!
