I have a spreadsheet that has cells for numbers to be inputed and cells with formulas to calculate those numbers, I'd like to protect the cells with formulas from accidently being changed, can I lock those particular cells~?
Thanks for any help~

Author John Walkenbach was Mr Spreadsheet until his retirement in June 2019.
If you select the cells you want the user to be able to change, select format, protection, and uncheck the locked box, then select tools protection to protect the sheet, this will give you the desired result.
