Insert Comments on a Protected Worksheet

C

cinnie

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

When setting sheet protection allow users to "Edit Objects"........down near
bottom of list.

Then you can Insert Comments in unlocked cells.
