    creating a form

    Is it possible to lock a spreadsheet so that anyone using it can only tab from certain cells that are unlocked to other unlocked cells? This is to be done to create a form that is filled in. I can lock the chosen cells and leave the desired cells unlocked but can't create a way for another user to only tab between the desired cells. If this is possible I's appreciate the help.

    Hi bboyd,

    You should be able to do this with Sheet protection (Tools -> Protection -> Protect Sheet). After unlocking those cells you want editable, protect the sheet with a password and deselect the option to 'Select locked cells'. Once protected, users will only be able to select unlocked cells, and tab through unlocked cells.
