Hello,

I have a document that has 100 sheets (all the same). Each of the sheets has cells that are protected and unprotected cells for folks to enter data. My questions. Is there a way to protect all of the sheets at once, instead of going to each one and protecting it individually.

Thanks,
 

Excel Facts

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple
Try this.

I use this in a Before Save module to ensure that all worksheets are protected.

Code:
Dim ws As Worksheet

For Each ws In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
    ws.Protect DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True, Scenarios:=True _
        , AllowInsertingRows:=True, Password:="password"
 Next ws
