=IF(A4='Exported Data'!B2,'Exported Data'!C2,"")
How can I lock A so when I copy over to the right the formula doesn't change that reference to B4?
Is there a way to have the True value (Exported Data'!C2) reference one cell over instead of selecting the cell to reference from?

I can have amacro which will lock each cell where a "Y" or "N" is inserted........ eg the netire sheet is unprotected but the moment Y is inserted in C 5 the cell gets locked, next entry in D 10 has a N entry and that too upon entry get's locked
The idea being once Y or N is typed that cell can no longer be changed

Currently have a column of cells that after the data has been entered we would like the cell to lock to prevent changes. The sheet is currently protected with the cells in question unlocked (D173:D250). We would like to be able to change the data if we unprotect the sheet. We would also like to be able to add/delete cells (list) in the code as needed.

I'm trying to write a vba code that does the following....
There is a question in column A to which the user chooses yes or no from column B. Based on the response in column B, I'd like the same row column D to be formatted so that if the anser is yes, the cell is white, and unlocked. If the response is no, the cell is cleared, locked and the greyed out. (e.g. if B4 is "Yes", the format in D4 will change) So far I've come up with the following which formats the colour:
Dim response As Range
For Each response In Range("$C$10:$C$73")
If response.Value = "Yes" Then
response.Select
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 2).Range("A1").Select
With Selection.Interior
[Code] .......
How to add in a .clearcontents function, so that the contents are cleared if the response is not "yes", and also what I would need to add to unlock the cell in column D?

Is it possible to lock in the formatting that would require 12 digits even if someone was copying and pasting to the cell?
We are looking to make our users add information into cells in the format 0-00000-00000-0. They are often copy and pasting, thus overwritting the custom format we have in those cells.
I've looked at validation, but custom only works for a formula.

I have a multisheet excel workbook that I am programming. I was wondering if there is a way to lock a cell on one sheet after the initial value was put in, allowing me to change it later. This may not be so clear so here is the problem....
I have Workbook1. The input from cell A3 on Sheet1 is 5. I have made a second sheet called Order Form. In cell B5 of Order form I have made it ='Sheet1'!A3. I am looking for a way to be able to change cell A3 on Sheet1, but keep the 5 on Order Form.

I have a range of cells I want to become locked (thus, uneditable), based upon the value of another cell.
For example, if cell A1 is "True," (based on a drop-down, not a formula) I want cells B1:B10 to become locked. I want the user to be able to edit these cells only when A1 is false. Also, the sheet is already passsword protected.

I am using the code below to prompt the user to enter his/her name in cell B4. What I would like to do is have it so that after the user enters his/her name, that cell is locked and cannot be cleared.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$B$4" Then
Range("B4").Value = InputBox("Please Enter " + Range("a4"), "Company")
End If
End Sub

So we have people's names in a table. First name in one column and last name in another column. We have a 3rd column where we can use 8 characters to do a combination of First 5 of Last Name + first 3 of first name. However, if someone's last name is only 3 or 4 characters, we'd then want to take more from the first name to fill out the 8 characters.
So:
Charles Johnson -> Johnscha
John Smith -> Smithjoh
Willian Wu -> Wuwillia
What's the best way to do that without creating some crazy formula with tons of if/thens?

I need to have a current row password protected when the value in ActiveCell.Offset(0, 0).Value = "Close"

VB: ActiveCell.Offset(0, 0).Value = "Close" (And lock current row With password 123)

0: i have a sheet 1 protected and few edit range (Col A,B,C,D,E and F).
1: I have a validation on multiple adjacent columns (like Col A, Col C, Col E).
2: I need a code where if i select value in col a (cell A2) cell B2 should get current date and Time and both the cells (A2 and B2) should be locked. when i select data in cell C2 , D2 should get current date and time(Cell C2 and D2 should be protected).
3: User can enter data in A3 and B3 will get current date and Time (now A3 and B3) should be locked.
4: I need a function where user can call it and unlock the locked cells and edit the data and re-lock the cells again.
apart from the Col A,B,C,D,E and F, other columns and cells remain locked.

I wish to be able to lock an entire row after an entry has been made in a certain cell.
e.g. let's say i want to lock row 9 in its' entirety following entry of "Yes" in cell G9. If there is no entry in G9 the the entire row should be still unlocked. Likewise with any row with a corresponding entry in column G.

In the attached example, I need to create a formula for cell I2 (Balance Remaining) that is driven off the most recent calculation (in this case, F68) but still allows for additional rows to be added to the ongoing list of orders. I believe I'm supposed to use an index formula but not sure how to write/apply it? I need to be able to add rows past 68 and still have Cell I2 (Balance Remaining) continue to calculate correctly.

I have a series of consecutive cells that I have a number entered in it. AP50 through AP 74 are numbered 1 through 25. I don't want the user to be able to change the number but I do want them to be able to click in the cell as this makes other functions happen.

I have a spreadsheet that evaluates cells against eachother and if they don't match I either delete the whole row, or delete up. When I do this, I have to redo the formula as I get an error.
So I start with: =EXACT(A1,G1).... and once I delete a row or delete "up", I get =EXACT(#REF!,$G3).
I have tried =EXACT(INDIRECT(A1,G1)), =EXACT(INDIRECT($A1,$G1)), and also =EXACT($A1,$G1).
None of these work.

None of the information Ive found on the forums seem to work in my sheet and Im not sure why. After protecting my sheet/workbook, I would like a particular input of a cell to Unlock another cell.
ie if the contents of cell A1 is the phrase "TRUE", then cell B1 will be Unlocked for editing. If the contents of A1 is "FALSE", then B1 shall remain locked. From what i can tell, this must be carried out using VBA code. If anyone can resolve this issue, Id be also very grateful if you could explain what each line of the code means

I need to lock the cells in a certain column based on the value of the right side cell. If the value of the right side cell is "Slave" it should lock the cell, otherwise it should remain unlock. I read many codes in the internet but none of them worked properly for me.
