D Dave Peterson Nov 8, 2005 #2 You can lock and unlock cells (then protect the worksheet) so that users can't change certain cells. But if you allow them to type a formula into a cell, then I can't think of anyway of stopping them from pointing at A1 when A1 shouldn't be used. Is that what you meant? If it is, maybe someone else has a way... If it's not, maybe you should rephrase your question.

P Piotr Nov 8, 2005 #3 Yes thats what I ment I wish to stop the user from select, for example A1 in formula becouse it shouldn't be used in formulas.
