Hi all,
My users require that the worksheet I'm working be protected so the formulas and numbers will not be accidently changed. However, they also require the ability to sort and filter data as they wish. Once the worksheet is protected, the Data | Sort menu is grayed out and becomes unavailable. Is anyone aware of any workaround? TIA. George |

Geroge:
Don't know if this will work for you or not... but I had a similar situation and ended up making the original a template. That way when they open it, they just get a copy that they can do anything with and the original does not get changed. Of course, any changes they make will not update the original. Not sure if that helps or not... Robin -----Original Message----- Hi all, My users require that the worksheet I'm working be protected so the formulas and numbers will not be accidently changed.
