How can I restrict certain columns in SharePoint?
I have created a SharePoint list. Is there any way to create a column where only specified users can edit it?

not built-in.

And most third party implementations can be bypassed if you know the product well enough.

Hello,

What version of sharepoint you are using?

As scott said no OOTB solution but you can either write code or buy third party tool. I know about "ListFieldIterator" which can iterate all fields in list and allow us to provide security at column level. Here is some ref link for you:

Hope it could help

Hi Cassie,

Along with  above provided solutions by experts ,This can also  be achieved using conditional formatting (created with SharePoint Designer or Info Path, for example), that hides columns you dont want a user to see, or control properties (created with Info Path, for example) that specify a control is read-only, or hidden entirely. Building this logic into views and forms can be tricky, to say the least, but people have found some success pursuing this path.
