Hello,

I need to export a xls file. After exporting the file, the existing data should be protected (not editable) but I can add new data in a new row to that xls file.
I have used
worksheet sheet=new worksheet();
sheet.protected=true;

This makes the whole xls sheet protected (not editable) but I can not add any new row with new data.

Can anybody please help me in this regards.

Thanks in advance.

Just a note: proper term for "not editable" is "read-only", but just "not editable" is the most accurate because it says for who it is not editable. "Protected" is used to denote very different concepts.
