Hi,
With cell protection enabled, sheet with a excel table in it will not expand but if I take the protection off it will, is there anyway round this? I have the cells that can be edited unlocked and formula cells protected.

If it can't be done any other way I can protect the cell formula's?

Thanks
 

Excel Facts

VLOOKUP to Left?
Use =VLOOKUP(A2,CHOOSE({1,2},$Z$1:$Z$99,$Y$1:$Y$99),2,False) to lookup Y values to left of Z values.
That is one of the drawbacks of tables on a protected sheet. You can either protect the sheet & loose some of the functionality, or keep the functionality but not protect the sheet.
There is no half-way house.
