You can lock or unlock any cell (format|cells|protection tab)
And when you protect the worksheet (Tools|Protection|Protect sheet), the locked
cells won't be able to be changed by the user.
But this worksheet protection is easily broken. So it's not made to protect
intellectual property.
And there are lots of things that can't be done to a protected worksheet, you'll
want to test it to see if you're happy.

By default all cells on a sheet are locked when the sheet is protected.
CTRL + a(twice in 2003) to select all cells.
Format>Cells>Protection. Uncheck "locked" and OK
Now select the sections/rows/cells to protect and Format>Cells>Protection.
Check "locked" and OK
Tools>Protection>Protect Sheet
The section/row locking does not work if you don't protect the sheet.
