RE: Locking cells

Hi Tim

Thanks for your question

To lock/unlock cells simply go to the home ribbon, and launch the font group dialogue. Go to the Protection tab and tick/un-tick the locked box

To protect cells, simply lock those cells you wish to protect and then go to Review ribbon and click Protect Sheet.

Regards

Stephen

Excel tip:

Sorting List Subtotals

If you find that you would prefer to show the items in a subtotalled list in a different order, eg ascending rather than descending, you can sort your list. To sort a subtotalled list, hide the detail rows and then sort the subtotal rows. When you sort a subtotalled list, the hidden detail rows are automatically moved with the subtotal rows.
IMPORTANT: If you do not hide the details rows before sorting a subtotalled list, your subtotals will be removed and all of the rows in your list will be reordered.
