Hello,
I have a worksheet of data that has a header row and the filter button is applied to the header row allowing to filter and sort data by column.
Some rows of data are locked while others are not or partial rows of data are 'locked'. The worksheet is protected.
With these settings, the filters work but you are not able to sort because of the locked cells.
I have found that if you set 'Allow users to edit ranges' located under the 'Review' tab to include the entire sheet of data, you are then able to sort the data even if the sheet is locked. But then you run into other problems, namely if you allow users to select locked cells, they can alter/delete data since an editable range has been set.
So my question is, can a sheet with locked data be sorted without setting an editable range via the 'Allow users to edit ranges' under the 'Review' tab?
Thanks for any help.
