Whats the trick to get a spreadsheet to make it show the enable editing prompt.
I have a worksheet that i copy some data out but i can only copy before i click enable editing. As when i click it the sheet becomes protected and i cant copy from it without stuffing around unprotecting it and enabling cut copy paste then copying and re protecting it.

Repeat Last Command
Pressing F4 adds dollar signs when editing a formula. When not editing, F4 repeats last command.
adding answer. I changed the name of the spreadsheet and the prompt popped back up.
