Permissions
I've used "Allow Edit Ranges" to give permissions to specific people to access to specific areas in a spreadsheet. The spreadsheet is being shared through OneDrive. The problem is, once individuals log into those areas, they are open for everyone to edit. Why? Is there a way to limit editing access to certain individuals only? I'm using 365 ProPlus and Windows 10.

* Knowing the Excel version and operating system would also be an advantage.
So you can get a solution that is tailored to your needs much faster.

Ilgar_Zarbaliyev , I've read those and I've followed those steps. The problem is, when a range is unlocked by someone, anyone else is able to edit those ranges.
Thank you for mentioning me.
I will answer to your query tomorrow in the first half of the day (Azerbaijan Time).
Good luck
