I have a few spreadsheets which are used as complex calculators and I don't want the formulas to change but the input boxes need to except new values. The files have to be marked read only as they are on a shared resource and won't open at all if they are not and someone else has a copy open. I think not being able to save the file should be sufficient. Possibly this is a feature request rather than a bug as such but it will also affect anyone coming from other spreadsheet products who are used to this behaviour. Thanks.
