Is there any way of stopping someone getting the values of locked hidden
cells on a protected worksheet by linking to them on another worksheet?

Thanks. It seems ridiculous that you can hide data by protecting the sheet
with a password protect but then access it simply by linking from a second
sheet. Oh well, I shall just have to be insecure. Thanks for the info
