Automatic Row Addition

[Ned_O]

I have a relatively simple mileage log that does some automatic calculations. Basically, all I need to do is fill in a date and the ending mileage and everything is calculated.

I've also created the spreadsheet so that rows add to the bottom of it automatically.

The problem is when I switch into Protect Sheet ( to protect the automatic calculations), it won't add rows to the bottom of the worksheet any longer. Is there a way to make that happen?

Thanks, ned

I don't really know what your plans are, because you haven't inserted a file (without sensitive data).

But it is possible to do this in different ways. Lock / unlock with VBA code or with single cells.

As I said, without a file (without sensitive data) where you explain your plans exactly,

it would be very time-consuming.

It would be advantageous to know the Excel version and operating system.

Here is some information on how you can best present your project,

so you will get a much faster and more accurate answer that best suits your project.

Thank you for your understanding and patience

Thanks, NikoolinoDE. I've added the file.

I'm simply wanting additional rows to appear at the end when I tab forward. This only happens when I'm not Protecting the Sheet.

I'm not sure what "Lock / unlock with VBA code or with single cells" means.

Thanks! ned

Thanks for the file that makes it a lot easier.
But please mark all cells that you would like to have blocked with a yellow background. So I can unlock all other cells for you and lock the yellow ones.

Thank you for your understanding and patience

I've yellowed the protected cells. I protected them from FORMAT CELLS.

The problem is once I turn on Protect Sheet, I can no longer automatically add rows to the bottom of the sheet. Instead, it goes back to the top.

Thanks,
