Excel Facts

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
or is there any VB code that will lock all the sheets on exit

You can do all worksheets. But you could use on "BeforeClose" event in workbook module. This is for worksheet. But you can do the same with workbook.

Code:
ActiveSheet.Protect UserInterfaceOnly:=True

If you need to change something, then just add a line to change to "False". Then you don't need a password.

Or have I misunderstood?
