Unable to use controls when sheet is protected
 
Take the sheet out of design mode.

When you protect the sheet, don't select objects as one of the things to
protect.

I have a spreadsheet that uses Combo Boxes and Command controls. When the
spreadsheet is protected, the user is unable to do anything with the

controls.

I unprotected the sheet, and the controls go into Design Mode. I can't

seem
to figure out why the controls won't work.

Any ideas as to why this is?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Not sure what bearing that has on using the controls.

Current Protect Sheet Settings allow the user to "Select locked cells" and
"Select Unlocked cells". Which all of the controls are Locked.
