I just discovered - after updating a lot of our users - that apparently
this is broken in the first 5.x release. There simply is no 'Cell'

unprotect the cell...

Can anyone else confirm this?

Yes. (5.0.0.5/mint)

There's a main menu option Table|Protect Cells, but apparently no inverse.

However, it seems you can R-click on the table in the navigator and
unprotect the entire table. Clumsy.

Clumsy is an understatement - and on top of that it doesn't even work.

Unprotect is not an option, only Protect, so I tried Protecting the
entire Table, then Unprotecting it, but the individual protected cell(s)
remain protected...

But I think you may have misread my note.

If you R-click the table *in the navigator* (use F5) there's a Table|Unprotect option. It only appears though if the table does have a protected cell. At least here.... and I have just checked it.

So to recap:
pick a cell and use main menu Table | Protect Cells
then to do a gross undo,
F5 to show the Navigator if necessary, R-click on the table's name and select Table | Unprotect.

As I said, clumsy.
