Please can you let me know how I may convert these commands into Excel 2007

Unprotect the sheet/ Unlock all cells/ Edit > Goto > Special > Formula
Format > Cells... > Protection > Locked..Protect the sheet

Thank you.

Thank you for your reply. The series of commands, although worked in 2003,
they do not give me the same result in 2007. Any ideas?

What I want to do is to hide the conditional formating and formulas, yet
still be able to input data into all the cells in the worksheet.

Thank you.

Hopefully you meant "still be able to input data into all the cells in the
worksheet THAT DO NOT CONTAIN FORMULAS". Otherwise how can you protect the
worksheet?
If YES I will give you the steps
best wishes
