CELL PROTECTION

HOW DO I PROTECT SELECTED DOCUMENTS AND UNPROTECT OTHERS?

RE: CELL PROTECTION

Cells are protected with this two stage process.

Select the cells you want to protect

Click on FORMAT> Cells, then navigating to the PROTECTION Tab, you will see a tick box saying locked.

Cells are locked by default, but are only activated once you switch the functionality on.
To do this, click on TOOLS > PROTECTION > PROTECT SHEET.

As cells are locked by default, so your would need to unlock the cells you do not want to protect.

Excel tip:

Quick Absolute Cell References

When entering cell references in a formula you probably click the cell, or you may type in the cell reference. If you require any of the 4 variations, press the F4 key now before you press Enter to toggle around the relative and absolute entries ($signs).

Note that the F4 key outside of editing a formula is the Repeat key to repeat a previous action.
