Be careful it is very easy to break protection on spreadsheets Excel in particular. Ther may be add-ins avaialble or you could try Linking with another program and sending out run times. Check out www.uts.com for the TK Player which would do the trick.

You must have a drawing object, or some other type of object like an embedded chart, way out on the right near the last column of the sheet. If the object properties are to move with cells, then increasing the width of a column might require moving the object off the sheet to the right. You can select the object and change the properties (Format menu) to have it not move with the cells.
