unprotect/reprotect sheet within macro


Posted by keith kemble on February 11, 2002 8:06 AM

In my macro routine, which works fine, I wish to unprotect the sheet in order to copy, then reprotect the sheet after pasting.

Would this be the PasswordChar function ?

The help section of excel is not clear.
I thought I saw a routine with in the message board but cannot find it.

Any help

One example would be:

ActiveSheet.Unprotect ("PASSWORD")
'Your code
ActiveSheet.Protect ("PASSWORD")

Of course, substitute PASSWORD here for whatever password you want.
