Hello board,

I was able to add protection to my spreadsheet so nobody could mess with cells they aren't supposed to. However, I found that one can still change the margins and orientation. How can they too be locked down?
 

Excel Facts

Create a chart in one keystroke
Select the data and press Alt+F1 to insert a default chart. You can change the default chart to any chart type
Hmmm by margins do you mean width of cells/columns? They shouldn't be able to do that if the worksheet is protected and both cells touching the margin are protected.

Either way, you can try protecting the Structure and Windows of the workbook. Get there the same way but instead of clicking Protect Sheet hit Protect Workbook and then click "Protect Structure and Windows."
