Still having this issue. It is appearing on computers that were working for some time. Here is as simple of a restatement of the issue as I can make:

I have a number of Active X combo boxes that use Fill Ranges from another workbook. When I use one of the combo boxes, every thing seems to work normal except including the fact that you cannot select protected cells and you can select unprotected cells (So sheet protection seems to be working fine). The problem is even though you can select an unprotected cell, you cannot type in it.

I have deleted .exd files, ran Fixit, and made sure all are on same versions.

Running the procedure in my previous post restores functionality until the next time you use a combo box.

Help!
