<div>
so it works for copy/paste but not for move... &nbsp;I can still click on a cell and then move it to another unlocked cell. &nbsp;Is there away to prevent that?

I want to make it so people can’t copy/paste from cell to cell? &nbsp;I have all the cells locked accept for the cells that will have drop down menus and the sheet protected. &nbsp;I want to prevent people from copying from one cell to another because each cell has a slightly different answer choices in the drop down menu. &nbsp;<br />

Thanks!

Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) enables building user-defined functions (UDFs), automating processes and accessing Windows API and other low-level functionality through dynamic-link libraries (DLLs). VBA is closely related to Visual Basic and uses the Visual Basic Runtime Library, but it can normally only run code within a host application rather than as a standalone program. It can, however, be used to control one application from another via OLE Automation. VBA is built into most Microsoft Office applications.

Microsoft Excel topics include formulas, formatting, VBA macros and user-defined functions, and everything else related to the spreadsheet user interface, including error messages.

Microsoft Excel

Microsoft Office is an integrated suite of applications that includes Outlook, Word, Excel, Access, PowerPoint, Visio and InfoPath, along with a number of tools to assist in making the individual components work together. Coding within and between the projects is done in Visual Basic for Applications, known as VBA.
