Good Morning,

I have put a lock button in to my Excel workbook to lock all sheets when I press the button.

As a stupid person I keep forgetting sometimes to press it to lock the sheet so I am looking to automate it so that if it hasn't been pressed when before I close it then it locks itself as a fail safe.

Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim pwd As String


pwd = "MY PASSWORD" ' Put your password here
For Each ws In Worksheets
    ws.Protect Password:=pwd
    ws.Protect AllowFiltering:=True
    ws.Protect AllowUsingPivotTables:=True
Next ws
Dim sht As Worksheet
For Each sht In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
    If sht.Protection = False Then
    sht.Protect ("MY PASSWORD", = True )
    End If
Next sht
End Sub

Could you please provide any advice which would be greatly appreciated.
