    Thumbs up Macro

    I've got following problem :
    Working in a sheet that's protected, want to write a macro wich unprotects the sheet, locks the selected cells and then protects again the sheet with a pasword - I also want that afterwards the user is able to : make use of autofilter, cell formatting, select portected cells and select unprotected cell.
    How can I do that? Following doesn't work after running the macro.
    Thaks very much in advance!!!!

    Private Sub Admin_Click()
    ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="oeps"
    Selection.Locked = True
    Selection.FormulaHidden = False
    ActiveSheet.Protect DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True, Scenarios:=True _
    , AllowFormattingCells:=True, AllowFiltering:=True
    ActiveSheet.Protect Password:="oeps"
    End Sub

    Welcome to the forum.

    Please take a moment to read the forum rules and a) change your thread title to something specific and meaningful and b) include CODE tags around your code sample.

    As you are using buttons and code, it would also be helpful if you uploaded a sample workbook with some typical data and worksheet structure(s).

    Re: Macro

    Your post does not comply with Rule 1 of our Forum RULES. Your post title should accurately and concisely describe your problem, not your anticipated solution. Use terms appropriate to a Google search. Poor thread titles, like Please Help, Urgent, Need Help, Formula Problem, Code Problem, and Need Advice will be addressed according to the OP's experience in the forum: If you have less than 10 posts, expect (and respond to) a request to change your thread title. If you have 10 or more posts, expect your post to be locked, so you can start a new thread with an appropriate title.
    To change a Title on your post, click EDIT then Go Advanced and change your title, if 2 days have passed ask a moderator to do it for you.

    Your post does not comply with Rule 3 of our Forum RULES. Use code tags around code. Posting code without them makes your code hard to read and difficult to be copied for testing. Highlight your code and click the # at the top of your post window. For more information about these and other tags, found here

    PLEASE PM WHEN YOU HAVE DONE THIS AND I WILL DELETE THIS POST
    Hope that helps.
