Using Autofilter with Protection on
 

I have put protection of a worksheet, and Autofilter checkbox is on, but the
Autofilter option in Data Filter is greyed out. What am I doing wrong?

If you are using XL2000 or prior you don't have that luxury.
Fortunately, Debra Dalgleish has an elegant solution to the problem
