Protecting Cells
In Word 97, is it possible to protect single cells? e.g. a single row is
split into two and I want to protect the column on the right-hand side to prevent its content being deleted.

Sorry, no.
The procedure I gave you before, inserting section breaks and protecting only certain sections, is the only way to protect any part of a document (in versions before Word 2003). But there's no way in any version of Word to put a section break in the middle of a table, let alone in the middle of a row. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit.
