Protecting formulas in a workbook
 

How do you protect cells with formulas in a workbook without keeping
changes from being made by other people who are sharing the workbook?

In other words. I have inserted formulas into hundreds of worksheets
that are going to be shared. I don't want the calculations to be lost
if someone happens to push the wrong keys. Several people will be
sharing these worksheets and will need to change numbers in them, but I
want to protect the formulas. Is this possible?

Thank you ahead of time. :)

You can unlock all your cells. Then hit Edit--Go to--Special--Formulas
and lock those cells. Then protect...

Is there a way to copy a worksheet and create a hundred more without
having to paste them one at a time?
