I'm having a little problem with Excel 2002. I have recently seen two
unrelated instances (from unrelated users) where a sheet was
protected, but I was able to enter values in cells that were locked.

I have used Excel in all its versions over a period of 20 years and I
haven't seen this happen before. Does anyone know how this is
happening?

Thanks,
Tedr

Excel 2002 is the first version to allow users with permission to edit locked
cells.

Tools>Protection>"Allow users to edit ranges"
