Hi Zeeshan, I have used this method myself--it's always worked for me.
Have you tried it this time? If you have trouble, just repost your file and I will look at it to see what the problem is.

There is a protection option available only via VBA called "UserInterfaceOnly". It's purpose is to allow other VBA code to maipulate protected sheets freely, but have the sheets otherwise stay fully protected for user actions. (It does not work 100% in all situations even for that advertised purpose, by the way). If we enable "UserInterfaceOnly" protection for the file, and then toggle the VBA SHEET.EnableOutlining property to True, the sheet will be protected with outlining enabled. The UserInterfaceOnly protection option is not saved with the file, though, so we have to take these steps every time the file is opened. To do so, you can use the foloowing code in the ThisWorkbook module: Private Sub Workbook_Open() With Me.Worksheets("your_sheet_name") .Protect Password:="your_password", UserInterfaceOnly:=True .EnableOutlining = True End With End Sub If you don't have/want a password, change the .Protect line to: .Protect UserInterfaceOnly:=True You can find some more details at http://www.ozgrid.com/Excel/outlining-protected.htm.
