    Protect the formatting (fonts, lines, etc.) of my workbook, but leave it open for edits

    Hi all!

    I'm trying to protect my workbook from having people around the office from changing the formatting -- I need standard fonts, outline on the cells, etc. Is there a way for me to protect the formatting, but still keep the cells open and editable for new and updated information?

    Thanks so much!

    Patty, if you click on "Review" in the ribbon, then "Protect Sheet", a window will open where you can select what you want to protect.

    Hope this helps.
    Brendan.
