The CreateSecurityDescriptor method creates a security descriptor containing information on users and respective access rights (defined in the EditRangePermission object). Use the ProtectedRange.SecurityDescriptor property to associate security descriptor with the protected range.
Access rights are in effect when the worksheet is protected (use the Worksheet.Protect method to apply protection to the worksheet).
Users and groups not listed in the range permissions must enter a password specified by the ProtectedRange.SetPassword method to edit the range.
