EXCELL Protection

There needs to be better protection on locked cells.

It is possible to alter the formatting of a locked cell by pasting into the
cell. Example pasting an entry copied from a % format into a currancy format
changes the cell to %. This also follows with coulours etc.

Secondly a formula in a locked cell can be corrupted by inadvertantly
removing cells that it refers to and then replacing them.

I was looking through the archives in Google at work trying to get a head
start in reading the Excel posts, (don't tell the boss! <g>) and I found
that this post is entered in Google as

*1 new message of 1 Message - 1 author *

as if there was no initial post although the previous text could be
unhidden.

Does anyone know if this is a fault in Goolge's new interface, should it be
reported to them and if so how do you do it?

Regards

Sandy

Thank you Dave,

I had never noticed it before but then with many threads of similar subjects
being lumped together it was probably not so obvious. Anyway for what its
worth I e-mailed them.

request a post is removed in the these NG's it never occurred to me that
that could be the reason.
