Default EXCEL CELL PROTECTION

First, upper case in posts is like shouting and considered rude.

While in A1, go to DataValidationAllow dropdown, 'custom' and type a
formula of...

=ISTEXT(A1)

You can highlight your cells first and then type the reference to the
activecell. The rest will update automatically
