Is there is a way to not allow a user to see the Row and Column Headings (Tools Options View) and to not allow a user to check the box to see the Row and Column Headings. In other words - create a spreadsheet where the user can never see the row and column headings.
 
Romary,

It can be done, but it will not be MS Excel.

VBA code can be written that on open of the workbook, the menus are removed and the columns and rows are hidden from view. However, VBA is not fail-safe or un-crackable. So it depends on your purpose.

Anne et al,

A savy user can STILL use KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS to access ANY MENU in ANY MS APPLICATION , regardless if the menu is visible or not!

:cool:
