    Macro buttons on a Protected Worksheet not working

    Hi all,

    I am trying to get my Macro buttons working on my worksheet when the worksheet is protected to stop tinkering.

    The buttons at the top left basically move the sheet to the corresponding month to save searching or scrolling. Wondered if anyone could help please.

    Buttons work fine when unprotected.

    Thanks in advance.

    You have Locked protection on the goto cell AND protection of the sheet with Locked cells as not selectable.

    If you temporarily remove protection you can goto the cell but applying protection will move the active cell.

    How about using

    You will need to apply the protection within the workbook open event
