Macro to unprotect sheet --> unlock cells --> protect again

**hrhittn23** · 11-29-2010, 01:59 PM

I've done quite a bit of research, but can't find exactly what I'm looking for. I have a protected worksheet named "Data" which has certain locked cells. The password to unprotect is "Password". I've created a macro to copy from another file (which works great thanks to many of you!) At the end of the macro, I need to unprotect the sheet, unlock cells C13:L1012, then protect it again.

I believe this is possible, right?

Hi

You need to add three lines of code, however if your sheet is already unprotected omit line 1.
