Insert Comments on a Protected Worksheet
hi - I have a worksheet with areas that are locked, and a range B5:H23 that
is not locked. Protection has been applied to the sheet. The user is allowed to SELECT unlocked cells. My problem is that I want to be able to INSERT COMMENTS in the unlocked range. I can't seem to do this while protection is ON. (Comments can only be added when Protection is OFF) What am I missing? thanks in advance -- cinnie |

Insert Comments on a Protected Worksheet
When setting sheet protection allow users to "Edit Objects"........down near
bottom of list. Then you can Insert Comments in unlocked cells.
