I need help locking cells in a range that is copied from another sheet based on user input. I am able to change the color with conditional formatting, but can not figure out how to lock out cells that are part pf a header. A simplified example is:

Cells A1:A100 are mostly input cells. However, if a corresponding cell in B1:B100 = 1, the matching "A" cell needs to be locked. What code can I use to make this happen?
 

Excel Facts

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
