Description: I ran into an issue while collaborating on a spreadsheet: On protecting a sheet in Excel, permission can be given on each of these points: Select locked cells Select unlocked cells format cells format columns format rows insert columns insert rows insert hyperlinks delete columns delete rows sort use autofilter use pivot table reports edit objects edit scenarios in LibreOffice-calc, only Select locked cells Select unlocked cells insert columns insert rows delete columns delete rows are possible Particularly the lack of "sort" and "autofilter" are difficult in my case Steps to Reproduce: 1.import an xl spreadsheet with a protected sheet with sort and autofilter permission 2.unlock sheet 3.edit something 4.relock sheet 5. save in xls format Actual Results: opening the file in excel does not allow you to filter or sort without unlocking Expected Results: being able to sort or filter the sheet without unlocking in xl Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Version: 7.2.5.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 20(Build:2) CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Ubuntu package version: 1:7.2.5-0ubuntu0.21.10.1 Calc: threaded I AM NOT SURE ABOUT THE SEVERITY: IT IS INDEED NORMAL IF COMPATIBILITY WITH EXCEL IS EXPECTED, OTHERWISE IT'S A FEATURE REQUEST Also, I think it is also present in much earlier versions but I have no means to determine exactly which, a similar bug was reported in 2006 on AOO: https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=71468
