HI Ramesh, Please find the attached sheet with the solution.
Following is the way to protect a cell. Select a cell and then choose: Data | Validation | Settings. Change the 'Allow:' drop down box to 'Custom' and then type ="" in the formula box. However it will allow user to delete the content in a cell. But it will not allow to edit the content of the cell.
