Hiding Rows, Columns from Client or User Access
Hello. I've searched and thought but I want to ask the question anyway:
Is there some way I haven't found, to hide a row or group of rows (or only show the ones you want) from a user or published view and keep those sent rows in an interactive environment?
Heres the situation: Out of my 200 row sheet, I only want to show this group of users rows 20-30 but I want them to be interactive with it and have all the features available. I could send that out as a separate published view. As the admin, I coud see all 200 rows but no one else could. Thanks for any help. :-)

Michael,
Have you investigated Reports?
That is likely the path to your solution.
Also, I find understandng this article on permissions is a key factor in setting up your system:

你可以看到你的用户能做什么和能not do with the Reports (and Sheets)
Hope this helps.

If you try web forms you can setup hidden fields that would show in your sheet but not in the form.
