    Data order entry in protected sheet

    Hi

    How do you go about setting the data entry order into cells in a protected sheet? Is there a database-type function that lets you determine the order for entry?

    before you protect the sheet select any cells you want to be editable and in format/cells/protection make sure they are not locked (ie uncheck the locked option)

    Hi Martin

    Done that but once I reprotect the sheet the cursor does not tab to the unprotected cells in the order I need. I do I change that order?
