Hi, I have an unlocked cell that I want users to manually input parameters BUT not to be able to cutcopy from anywhere (and most certainly NOT from other non excel formats that they may have kept a record of said parameter)

Any ideas? I gather private function should do this but Ive been lead to believe it wont work for cutcopy from external sources such as outlook ...

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
Apologies, I did not clarify. I need the disable ONLY for that particular cell. Not the entire workbook as I am reading on your link.
