I have the following code and I want to also allow formatting of columns. I have tried adding
.AllowFormattingColumns = True

but this does not work.



Private Sub Workbook_Open()
With Worksheets("Forecast")
.Protect Password:="test", Userinterfaceonly:=True
.EnableOutlining = True
End With
End Sub

Press Alt+F11 from Windows Excel to open the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) editor.
Try

Code:
.Protect Password:="test", Userinterfaceonly:=True, AllowFormattingColumns:=True
