thanks for looking at my post.
I would like to create some code that when my workbook "MasterArchive" is closed that the password"Secret" for sheet"CuttingList" is put in place. Arguments=the password may already be set and if so the code would end, but if the password has not been set for the sheet then have it done upon closing.

How to change case of text in Excel?
Use =UPPER() for upper case, =LOWER() for lower case, and =PROPER() for proper case. PROPER won't capitalize second c in Mccartney
Something along these lines :

Code:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeClose(Cancel As Boolean)
    With Worksheets("CuttingList")
        If Not .ProtectContents Then
            .Protect "Secret"
        End If
    End With
End Sub
