1. Open your Excel worksheet.
2. Select the cell or range of cells that you want to restrict from copying.
3. Right-click on the selected cell(s) and choose "Format Cells" from the context menu.
4. In the "Format Cells" dialog box, go to the "Protection" tab.
5. Uncheck the "Locked" checkbox. This will ensure that the selected cell(s) are not locked when the worksheet is protected.

7. Now, go to the "Review" tab in the Excel menu.
8. In the "Changes" group, click on the "Protect Sheet" button.

10. Specify the options you want to allow or restrict under "Protect sheet and contents of locked cells."
11. Ensure that the "Select locked cells" option is unchecked.
12. Click "OK" to protect the worksheet.
