I am creating a worksheet inside a locked workbook. I locked cells to prevent editing and overwriting in that worksheet. lock a portion of the worksheet. Other cells are editable by the user even when the worksheet is protected. This is all ok and simple.

I want the user to be able to insert pictures in the worksheet to allow for customization for the user's needs. However with a protected worksheet, I cant figurfe out how to allow pictures to be inserted in the unlocked cell ranges. Is this possible?

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.
I figured it out
when you go to protect the worsheet click on allow user to edit objects
