Greetings!

I need to allow others to sort my worksheet which contain a few
protected
columns. I am also using setup data validation and several other
functions.
This file is stored on a shared drive.

So farI have tried the following:

Tools/protection/protect sheets
Select locked cells
select unlocked cells
select format cell,
select columns
select rows
SELECT SORT
Select Autofilter
Select pivot reports

Whenever other users attempt to sort this worksheets, they get a
message
stating this worksheet is protected.

By selecting the "SELECT SORT" option listed above, shouldn't they
be able
to sort this data?

Thanks for your help.
