Good Morning,
i am wondering how i can lock my charts/graphs so that the axis cannot be changed. I can lock the cell with the formulas, but the axis can be changed.
Any help would be appreciated.
Have a nice day

Difference between two dates
Secret function! Use =DATEDIF(A2,B2,"Y")&" years"&=DATEDIF(A2,B2,"YM")&" months"&=DATEDIF(A2,B2,"MD")&" days"
Do you mean prevent the axis from autoscaling? Lock that by typing in a value for the axis parameter.

Or do you mean prevent someone from clicking on the chart and changing stuff? You'll have to protect the sheet that the chart sits on. By default the chart is locked, meaning protecting the parent sheet protects the chart.
