Protecting sheet but keeping list functionality in 2003
I think I've asked this before a while back, but is there any way to unlock
some cells, protect the worksheet and still have a list function as normal in terms of allowing the user to add a new row? tia, Doug |

Protecting sheet but keeping list functionality in 2003
When you protect the worksheet you can allow users to insert rows (one of
the check boxes in the protection dialog). New rows inherit the lock properties of the preceding row, so if the cells in the last row of your list are unlocked, a newly inserted row will add unlocked cells to your list.

Protecting sheet but keeping list functionality in 2003
Joerg,
Sorry, I should have been more clear. I have a couple of Lists - DataList - on a worksheet. I'd like to be able to have the formula cells in them and elsewhere on the sheet locked, and still have the Lists function with the new row (the row at the bottom of the list with the "*") and Insert Row capability.
