Can you create a macro which results in the following. When you open a workbook you are prompted to enter a reference. If the person enters "2" and a reference, then the only thing they can amend is row 2. If they enter "3" then they can only amend row 3 and so on and so on.

Is this too much for Excel?? :confused:

You can teach Excel a new custom list. Type the list in cells, File, Options, Advanced, Edit Custom Lists, Import, OK
Hello,

Put this code in the WORKBOOK CODE window, and see if it any good?

Code:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
ENTRY = InputBox("USER?")
If ENTRY > 0 Then
    Sheets("Sheet1").Unprotect ("abc")
    Cells.Locked = True
    Rows(ENTRY).Select
    Selection.Locked = False
    Selection.FormulaHidden = False
End If
ActiveSheet.Protect ("abc")
End Sub
