Protect a Sheet
If you enable "Protect Sheet" for a sheet in Excel (e.g. click of menu "Review" in Excel 2007), Spreadsheet can read the setting and prevent you from editing the protected sheet. Spreadsheet's API also allow you to enable / disable protection and get protection status of a sheet. Let's use a simple example to demonstrate the usage:
