hi there!
I've got a question:
I've made an entry form, where you choose a value from a dropdown(d5). Based on the value in the cell, I want to writeprotect column d7:d22. This seem simple, but how can I do it if I've got the same range in column E-L (and each column got a dropdown) - It has to be transparent ie. without click on a button...

So, bottomline is that I need som help :-)

looking foreward :)
