    Cell writable, given value of another cell

    Hi,

    Is it possible to make cell A1 writable if cell A2 has a higher value than 1 000. And locked for writing for given values below 1 000.

    Thanks!

    Hjahren

    Do it with custom validation on cell A1, A2>1000
    Hope this helps

    Sometimes its best to start at the beginning and learn VBA & Excel.

    Please dont ask me to do your work for you, I learnt from Reading books, Recording, F1 and Google and like having all of this knowledge in my head for the next time i wish to do it, or wish to tweak it.

    Data --> Validation --> custom, put the formula =A2>1000 in the custom box. Do some reading on the help for validation, this will open up things like this to you.
