Hi,

I often protect the cells in excel and send it out to multiple users but when I receive response from the users, some of the files are unprotected and violated by the users.
I know you can unprotect it with some methods.
But is there a way to protect the excel sheet from being unprotected? At least from macro?

Show numbers in thousands?
Use a custom number format of #,##0,K. Each comma after the final 0 will divide the displayed number by another thousand
Hi,

If you mean a really 100% protection with no potential violation ...
with Excel and VBA ... sadly it is not possible :(
