I am running code when a worksheet comes into focus using Private Sub Worksheet_Activate().

How can I run a code when the worksheet looses focus?

Repeat Last Command
Pressing F4 adds dollar signs when editing a formula. When not editing, F4 repeats last command.
I am using the Private Sub Worksheet_Activate() to run script on a worksheet whenever a user selects it and it works.
I also tried the following script auto protect the worksheet any time I leave the worksheet for another. it does not work.

Any ideas?


Private Sub Worksheet_Deactivate()
ActiveSheet.Protect "***"
End Sub

Replace Activesheet with Me
Once you have deactivated the sheet, it is no longer the active sheet

It works for me & protects the sheet that has just been deactivated (ie the sheet with the code in).
