The Protect feature

Hi Can anyone help. I have put a protect on some cells on a spreadsheet and now whenever I go over to the left to column A or up to Roa A and I press the curesor to far to the left or too far up it shoots me of to the end or the bottom of the spreadsheet which is a bit disconcerting. Does anyone know of a way to stop it doing this? Dawn

when you protect the sheet, you have an option to only allow the selection of unprotected cells. Turn this option off
