    "Move after Enter" in protected sheet

    I've got a spreadsheet where the range of cells that have values/formulas in it are unprotected and the rest of the cells are protected. Because of this, when I hit enter in a cell that's in the last row of the unprotected cells it will go up to the top of the sheet because it's going down but because the cell below it is protected and can't be selected it selects the top cell in the next column. I unchecked "After pressing Enter, move selection" in the Options, but because it's a protected sheet it ignores that and still moves the selection down after pressing Enter. Is there any sort of VBA code I can use to make it so that when the sheet is protected and I hit Enter that the selection doesn't move at all? Any help would be appreciated!!

    Hello BigTenBoy15,

    There are many ways to solve your issue, depending on hoe you have your Worksheet setup.

    To take out a lot of guessing and assumptions I would suggest that you attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to demonstrate your need. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are shown, mock them up manually if necessary.

    Remember to desensitize the data.

    Click on GO ADVANCED and then scroll down to Manage Attachments to open the upload window.
