All,

I want to have a timeline in my dashboard but I cannot seem to protect it from being moved/resized (having no issue with the slicers).  From what I'm reading online it appears that it is not possible to achieve this.  Is there any workaround using VBA or any other aspect of Excel besides using a slicer as a standin timeline?

Thank you,

Mike

Hi Michael,

Not that I'm aware of. Have you tried Protecting the Timeline and then using Worksheet Protection?
