    Good afternoon naveenmarapaka

    I'm not aware that you can - short of writing your own protected cell routine, which is a bit pointless.

    What you could do though, is forbid the user from selecting locked cells, from the Protect Sheet dialog box. Once protected, the user cannot attempt to edit what they can't select.

    Hi naveenmarapaka

    In the attached file, only the green cells can be selected, or edited. Tab can be used to cycle through them, or they can be selected manually.
