D Dave Peterson Jul 26, 2006 #2 If you've already applied the filters to the range before sharing the workbook, then those filter arrows will work. But.... If you've protected the worksheet in that shared workbook, it won't work.

D Dave Peterson Jul 26, 2006 #4 The bad part is that you can use autofilter on worksheets that are in shared workbooks. You can use autofilter on protected worksheets (if you apply the protection in code with a special parm). But once you share the workbook, you can't change the worksheet protection--so it kills the autofilter, too.
