Is there a way to deny a cut/paste to users while allowing Copy/Paste, and clear contents for the Workbook?
 

Excel Facts

Enter current date or time
Ctrl+: enters current time. Ctrl+; enters current date. Use Ctrl+: Ctrl+; Enter for current date & time.
Place this macro in the code module for ThisWorkbook:
Code:
Private Sub Workbook_SheetSelectionChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range)
    If Application.CutCopyMode = xlCut Then
        MsgBox "Please DO NOT Cut and Paste. Use Copy and Paste, then delete the source if necessary."
        Application.CutCopyMode = False
    End If
End Sub
Modify the message to suit your needs.
