Good evening seagull1

...and welcome to the forum!!

There are two forms of protection : worksheet and workbook.

Workbook protection deals with structures that you have just mentioned and is probably still intact.

Sure. You use the password.

Beyond that, I cannot help you any more as it's against forum rules.
