I'm tring to allow users to group ungroup, the code below won't let them use this function.

Any ideas? Thank you.


Code:
Sub protectall()
Dim ws As Worksheet
For Each ws In Worksheets
ws.protect AllowFiltering:=True, AllowUsingPivotTables:=True
ws.EnableOutlining = True
Next ws
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Remove leading & trailing spaces
Save as CSV to remove all leading and trailing spaces. It is faster than using TRIM().
At a guess you protect the sheet then try to modify the protection, try
Code:
ws.protect AllowFiltering:=True, AllowUsingPivotTables:=True, ws.EnableOutlining:=True
