When you save at end of day you can run event code to look down column A and find today's date or earlier. Then lock the cells in column C Does that work for you? First select all cells on Sheet1 and clear the "locked" property. Then paste this code into Thisworkbook module. Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean) Dim c As Range Dim rng1 As Range Dim ws As Worksheet Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1") Set rng1 = ws.Range(Cells(1), Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp)) ws.Unprotect Password:="justme" For Each c In rng1 If c.Value = Date Or c.Value < Date Then c.Offset(0, 2).Locked = True Else: c.Offset(0, 2).Locked = False End If Next ws.Protect Password:="justme" ThisWorkbook.Save 'save no ask End Sub Gord On Tue, 27 Apr 2010 14:18:41 -0700 (PDT), Michael Lanier <michaelrlanier(a)gmail.com> wrote: >Gord, > >Picture a check register.
