Default Worksheet Protection & Sorting

I have protected my worksheet, but allow users to: Select Unlocked Cells,
Sort, Use AutoFilter, and Use Pivot Table Reports. But when I enable the
protection, the following error comes up when I go to Data,Sort:

"The cell or chart you are trying to change is protected and therefore
read-only.

To modify a protected cell or chart, first remove protection using the
Unprotect Sheet command (Tools menu, Protections submenu). You may be
prompted for a password."

It is important that all users be able to re-sort our data. What other task
do I need to allow so this can happen?

Thanks in advance!
