Hi B!
Select all cells on the sheet by pressing the button at the
intersection of Row numbers with column letters
Format > Cells > Protection
Remove check from "Locked"
OK
Select the cells that you want to protect
Format > Cells > Protection
Place check on "Locked"
OK
Tools > Protection > Protect Sheet
Give and confirm password [optional]
OK
But be aware that Excel protection of sheets is little more than a
protection against accidental changes. The protection passwords are
very easily circumvented.

How do I protect a block of cells (a totals column) without
protecting all the columns in the spreadsheet?
