Hello @JamesSmallman 

 

Yes you can lock individual sheet tabs

To lock lock sheet tab:

  • In the sheet to lock, click on Protect sheet in the Review tab
  • Uncheck Select Locked Cell

  • Click OK.

The sheet tab will be locked completely while other sheet tabs are available to interact with

@Abiola1thank you

 

is it also possible to blank out the data if someone clicks on the wrong tab?

Hello,

You're welcome. I didn't get what you mean by "blank out data"

However, you can hide a sheet tab by right-click and select Hide sheet. This will ensure that important sheet are not visible to the eyes for anyone to compromise the data.

Hope this helps
