How to Lock Cells in Google Sheets
Google calls locking cells—"protecting" cells. And it's really quite easy to lock a cell in Google Sheets.
What does it mean to lock a cell in Google Sheets?
Google Sheets lets you protect (lock) cells, so that data within the cell cannot be edited or changed. Even if you've already shared a Sheet with someone, they will not be able to change the data or information in the "protected" or locked cell.
