I Can Not Use Data Groups In Protected Sheets?
If you already have the outline applied, you can protect the worksheet in code
(auto_open/workbook_open??). Option Explicit Sub auto_open() With Worksheets("sheet1") .Protect Password:="hi", userinterfaceonly:=True .EnableOutlining = True End With End Sub It needs to be reset each time you open the workbook. (excel doesn't remember it after closing the workbook.) (you could use the workbook_open even under ThisWorkbook, too.) Don't forget to lock the VBA Project, too. Else you'll have inquisitive types looking at your code and seeing the password. Inside the VBE, you can lock the project. Tools|VBAProject Properties|Protection tab. Give it a memorable password and lock the project for viewing. If you're new to macros, you may want to read David McRitchie's intro at: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/getstarted.htm damlays wrote: I want to protect my formula cells by using protectin but then I can not find any way to use data groups (expand or shrink) outlined rows and columns.
