welcome to TSDN ...

as far as i know you cannot use JavaScript for scripting something in an excel-application ... you only may use it with a browser. could you please describe the use-case that you have?

kind regards

in our task we are downloading data to excel sheet with all cells as protective except 5 cells which are editable, users are copying some data and paste it in the new sheet but we dont require this environment. so we want to restrict the code to disable copy functionality

hmmm ... i guess the download uses a serverside script that writes the excel-file for the download ... may be you should investigate further at this point so the excel-writer could add some magic to disable copy&paste during the file-creation process ... as i said: you cannot do that with javascript

kind regards
