If the user performs one of the following activities though, the cells locks are undone: :

  • Adding/removing dimensions or measures to the crosstab

  • Calling the prompting dialog to change variable values

  • Swapping row and column axes

  • Hierarchical axis display

  • Zero suppression

  • Setting a filter

  • Executing a planning function or sequence
